salconflu 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2008 I am wondering if anyone has a good suggestion for documenting Canadian and UK jurisdictions. I am finding some important differences especially with the use of civil parishes in England that don't correspond with those given in the Standard US Place Style. On another note, I wish place selections could be made from the existing master place list when entering new data. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

See my Data Entry Tutorial, about half way down, the "Entering Repeated Place or Other Data" section. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joanmc 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2008 I solved this issue by creating 4 additional Place Styles: Ontario (they have counties but province instead of state), BC (we don't have counties but in early days had districts), UK & 'My US' - this is for NY State as they use 'Town' instead of Township like Ontario and I have a lot of ancestors from NY pre-Revolution. This works very well although I wasn't successful in getting the order of the place names correct. Good luck!
