Peggy,
Based on what I've read here over the years, whenever one of us who does a lot
of research in the US starts talking about trying to fit US locations into the
4 mold, and may or may not mention a non-US example, someone from outside the
US will comment in this fashion. Nothing against them!
Peggy, Again, I may not have read all your posts, but I think the general
advice from the list is to never download anything from (say) Ancestry
directly into your database. Load it separately, clean it up and then add it to
your main database. (I know this doesn't help you much NOW, but...)
That's not only the general advice from the list but the specific
advice from Legacy when you import a new file, whether it be a gedcom
or a Legacy file. That's the reason the first option to create a new
file is selected by default.
Sincerely,
Sherry

Peggy,
Legacy does have a search and replace for the Master Location List
Go to Search Search and Replace
Use the scroll down list to select Lists - Location to find and replace
in the Long Location Name
Use Lists - Location Short to search and replace
Do others want to enter the township into the location? There isn't a problem
if the location doesn't have a town and a township, but when that happens, how
do you list the township if you want to keep to the standard location form for
countries where it works. I've been adding it after the

Marg,
Yes, I enter the township instead of the town/city in a location name.
Township is a breakdown of county but outside of a town or city. I don't
think I've seen them both on the same census page.

Marg,
As I reread what I typed, I realized I should say that towns and cities DO
geographically fall into townships (at least in public land
In New England Townships are essentially unincorporated cities, I
believe. In many parts of the country Townships are a 6 mile square
surveyed area. Not all states handle townships the same. You have to do
what works for you in the area you are working.
