In Adrian's example, I'd have the Occupation as Clergyman, then a Custom Attribute, Grade, for Archbishop and Title of Archbishop of Canterbury. I use grade for Apprentice, Journeyman, Master Constable, Sergeant, Inspector Priest, Rector, Bishop Etc which then allows me to assign a perìod to a singl...

The thing about the Work with Data reports (at least in V5) is that they include the facts for everyone in the database whereas I'd like to be able to restrict them to just related or Pool 1 individuals.

It'll be MyFirstPlugin when I get the time

Thanks for the thoughts.

I'd ruled out being able to code a query for finding widows and spinsters with a residence or census fact pre-1918, purely down to my skill-level.

Based on no evidence at all, I think the number of false hits I'd get would greatly outweigh the true ones

Forgot there was football on, but have given it a quick try this morning and works as hoped for

Thanks Mike

Call me a Luddite, Mike, but I still am on V5

Thanks for the answer, I'll try it out tonight when I get home

Hi. I'm trying to create a query to find individuals who might be on the Electoral Roll I have produced a result set with Date: %FACT.DATE% Fact: =FactLabel(%FACT%) matches Census or Residence Fact Owner: =FactOwner(%FACT%,1,MALES_FIRST) Fact Owner Age: =AgeAt(FactOwner(%FACT%,1,MALES_FIRST),%FACT.D...

But what if they received the Nobel Peace prize? Title doesn't seem to work well for that, to me

Has anyone ideas of dealing with redacted entries in the 1939 Register set There are 2 scenarios 1 You think you know who the entry is 2 You don't For 1/ take my grandparents There they are in the house I visited many times. There's a redacted entry. My Dad was 12 at the time. Of course it's him. Un...

Not proving you wrong, but I couldn't get it to work without the NullDate test Adding the test to the birth added entries from wills and Marriage witnesses where I only have a name. Not a worry for the diagrams, but useful to add as the bottom row of a query (which I had previously restricted to Rel...

After fruitless attempts with IsEmpty, Not(Exists) and > Today(), found NullDate which seems to have done the trick =IsTrue(Not(Exists(%INDI.CENS[year=1939]%)) and Not(HasFlag(%INDI%,"Foreign")) and (EstimatedBirthDate(%INDI%,EARLIEST,2) < DateAt(1939,9,28)) and IsTrue((EstimatedDeathDate(%INDI%,LAT...

Thanks Mike

To answer

Why is the 1939 expression any different from other Census years?

I'm guessing that the Estimated Death function of anyone in the 1911 Census is before today's date so there is never a null value produced

I show icons where I haven't found entries for an individual in a census. They're already pretty longwinded but the one for 1939 is failing, I think because where an estimated death date is in the future, it gives a null return I have so many IsTrues (are they all needed??) and brackets, I'm just ge...

Hi Consider something like Kensington Church Street instead of Zanzibar Street Won't you have to type all the way up to Kensington at least to see whether you already have an address entry, as you might also have entries for Kensington High Street, Kensington Mews, Kensington Gardens, Road, Street e...

You maybe thinking of FT Analyser, which isn't actually part of FH, but loads the FH Gedcom into it and gives similar reports to those you mentioned.

Thanks, Mike

Hi.

Is there one?

Thanks

Steve

Thanks, Mike, I'll try and set that up to get what I want

Steve

Hi I could be being dim, but either the Named List Approach wrt to Repository visits isn't well described, or it is and I don't get it. I would like FH to produce a list for me of all the items I want to research at a certain archive Would it be possible to go through a worked example? Say, for the ...

Manchester (inc Salford) Baptisms are available online at Ancestry so you don't have to give up hope yet...

Thanks for the fix, Nick

I have started using AS4 and have a problem with some residence options being greyed out in Baptisms and Marriages In Baptisms I can only set the "Individual Residence", not the Father's Residence or Mother's Residence This isn't actually a problem (so far) as the text in those fields is auto-comple...
