Thank you Nick and tatewise. I deleted the marriage entry in the facts tab and the narrative shows just what I wanted.

I have a problem on how to record a birth to unmarried parents. Ann Baxter registered the birth of her son William in 1842 and showed the father as Wiliam Kirkby.  Her son took her surname Baxter, which shows on subsequent census. I can only assume that William Baxter did not know his father.  When ...

Thank you Adrian. I have ordered the death certificate. I had previously visited the CWGC site and found some details, it was just the method of obtaining the certificate that eluded me.
Many thanks again.

I wish to obtain the death certificate of a great uncle 'missing presumed dead' in WW1 on the Somme in July 1916. I have his regimental details. Where do I go to obtain this certificate, if one was issued?

Thank you Nick. This sounds just what I want. I missed it when exploring for a solution. I will try it when I have a moment.

I have Ubuntu and wish to run FH v3 using wine. Have you encountered any problems or tips you can pass on.

Nick I think I have solved the problem. Whilst I was using your Ged Com Census, I had FH minimised on the toolbar, I had therefore expected the open FH to be updated straight away. However I closed FH and reopened it with the latest GC Backup and all was well. Thanks for you prompt reply. A great pr...

I have just started to use Ged Com Census and all went well for the first two entries. Thw 2nd entry for Ann Baxter 1851C was saved fine. Bur when I saved the 3rd entry for Ann Baxter 1861C nothing appeared in the Source Record in FH. I re-entered my data and saved again but still nothing. I am usin...
