Spouse-1 of a couple is entered, with residences, before the marriage is known about. Later, spouse-2 is added and it is discovered that the couple co-resided at some or all of addresses known about for spouse-1.
Is there a quick way of converting spouse-1 residences from an 'individual' attribute to a 'family' attribute rather than having to re-type all of the information into a set of co-residence entries and then deleting the corresponding spouse-1 individual entries?

I can't think of a quick way for this one, personally I don't use co-residence as I prefer to include addresses with the events they relate to and only use residence for data such as addresses gained from respondents on death certificates etc.

Possibly the best way would be to Copy and Paste the Individual Attribute from Spouse-1 to Spouse-2, altering dates if necessary. If you wanted to emphasise that they lived there together, add a note to that affect.

Thanks. I'll give some thought about which option to use.
The Q arises from having to move 'unrecognised data' imported from 'Pedigree' program in which it is separately entered. Maybe I'll continue with that arrangement.
