I am struggling with the sentence structure for the residence tag. Currently, the sentence structure for principals and witnesses is as follows [P] <|and [PO]> resided at <[L]>< with [WO]> <[D]> For the following circumstances P1: Harold Frederick Lantz [father] P2: blank W1: Paul Leroy Lantz [son] W2: Virginia Eleanora Lantz [daughter] Resided on Scott street, Springfield, Hampden County, Massachusetts in December 1916 Sentence structure with Harold Frederick Lantz as principal (journal report), comes out as Harold Frederick Lantz resided at Scott Street, Springfield, Hampden County, Massachusetts, with Paul Leroy Lantz and Virginia Eleanora Lantz in December 1916. This is fine, but the sentence structure with Paul Leroy Lantz as principal (journal report) Harold Frederick Lantz resided at Scott Street, Springfield, Hampden County, Massachusetts, with Virginia Eleanora Lantz in December 1916. For some reason the principal (listed in the tag as a witness) does not appear in the sentence The sentence structure works for for the reports I have been generating (mostly journal and individual narrative reports) for the principals, but doesn't work for the witnesses. I would like to generate something like Witness 1, was residing in this place, with Principal 1 and Principal 2 (when present, which it isn't in this case), with other witnesses (when present) on date. Or something like that. I was hoping the collective experience could help me sort this out. thanks
