    Ancestral research and making effective use of TMG for my work.
  1. I pretty much use what Terry's TMG Tips article for census source types proposed. I have two types of census tags, the normal standard TMG tag and a second tag of my own I call "Census<1850". In the censuses prior to 1850 I have a witness sentence which uses this sentence: [W] was probably enumerated on the census <of [D]> in the household of [P] <and [PO]> <[L]> In use this in cases where I feel fairly sure about the inclusion of the witness person in the numeric counts by age and give it an appropriate surety. If I am less sure I change the sentence to read "possibly" instead of "probably" and give it a lower surety value. I am curious how others handle this situation Neil
