John: This might seem to be an odd request and I don't know if it's even a possibility: At the moment, age shows when there is a birth date and a death date. Would it be possible to have the age recalculated and change when I click on an event in the left edge, e.g. marriage (age shows 22), occupation farmer (age shows 34), resided (age shows 25), census (age shows 37) etc. When there are ages shown in a source it would be a good secondary check to have available if it can be done. Leaving the record the age should then default to what now happens, difference birth/death. As always the idea is open for discussion by everyone. Dave Bradshaw
