Suggestions on entering census info
Posted: 13 Jan 2014 21:14
How would people deal with the following for entering with AS.
In the 1871 census I have the following Alice Ellswood head, widow 28, Mary J.Glover sister 33 and Amelia Glover sister 21
As her sisters are named Glover and shown as unmarried should I enter her as Alice Ellswood or Alice Glover?(And then add marriage info as and when I get it) If I enter her as Alice Ellswood and consequently confirm she was originally Alice Glover and change Ellswood to Glover in FH would all references to Alice Ellswood be changed to Alice Glover.As I work backwards entering the census info and none of the three are as yet in my family history project how would I enter them as related individuals?
Hope this makes sense.
