Family Historian User Group

I have just extracted some records from the above site and used their download facility to create a GedCom file.

The downloaded file, which is version 5.5, loaded beautifully into FH however I noticed that certain fields ie Occupation, Age, Sex, Address were not transferred. When I looked at the GedCom file in Notepad the fields were there.

Is the problem the way the GetCom file has been formatted in the first place on the download and is there a way round this.

Has anybody else tried this exercise ?

Any chance you could paste a little of the gedcom to the forum, so I can see if I can see an easy work around for you.

False alarm - I had been looking in the wrong place. A census event had been created for the individual so the data structure was as follows:

Individual
 
  Census
   
    Source
     
     Data
       
        Text from Source

The information I was looking for was in the 'Text from Source' field.
