The Descendant Tree Chart will show the baptized date if the birth date is not known. However, it does not show the death year if only the burial is shown. Am I the only one who has a problem with this? Carole
If you know the burial date, you therefore know the death year. Insert the death year, or you could also use: i.e. burial date 19 Sep 2012, death date abt 18 Sept 2012.

Hi Fran, Unfortunately the death year is not always the burial year. It can be several years before a person is buried. For instance, a person may be cremated and buried a decade later. Some soldiers are not buried for many years after their death.

I see you point and it is a good advice to also include to have the date of bapt, burried as a good point. Also not only to use abbr. and symbole but alson to use born, bapt. married etc if some want that -- Otto Jørgensen http://www.bkwin.info/ All email is checked by NORTON
