Beth,
A discussion item for us is how to do the data entry of the new names.
I would like to have it so that a query of Elcik in the List of All People gets all the Elcik’s.
At the same time, We now have variations in the name for:
- American name
- Baptismal name
- Slovak name
I propose the following to get the sort right and keep the historical data as well.
Not only will the Elcik’s all appear using this strategy, but the variations will appear sorted at the end.
You can see what I mean by doing a sort on the MyCousins Tree.
What do you think?
John, IV
