Additional we use alternative names to cover other name. E.g. Female was (mostly around 1900 and later) entered by the the name they are born but normaly change name when marrieage, then we use "name as married" In cesus we ofte see that name are didrrerent from cencus to census, but we do enter all variants as "name in sensus" And so on we use the flexibility in BK by the use of "alternative names" In that way a person in the database have many different name, but the namnes are also searchable But we nhormaly do not print all names in the reports, but add what is to be printed in the "biography" -- Otto Jørgensen http://home.online.no/~otjoerge/ All email is checked by NIS2014
