    3. Georgia, I forwarded this for you. The e-mails go to clooz-l@rootsweb.com, not clooz-l-request@rootsweb.com. >To: Clooz-L-request@rootsweb.com >Old-Date: Sat, 15 Jul 2006 11:45:59 -0400 >Subject: Clooz II-Censuses & Sources >X-Mailer: Juno 5.0.33 >From: Georgia Clark <georgiapat@juno.com> > >I have several questions/remarks. > >What is the 1885 US Federal Population Census under US Censuses? Is this >one to be used for State Censuses (not Federal)? There was an 1885 federal census done of several states that, I think, were territories in 1880. They include Colorado and some others. You can find out about them on the National Archives website at www.archives.gov. >I like the layout of the censuses but what happened to the remarks that I >had in "Description". It does not show when I use the option to print a >census but it is still there when I look at the template (the box where I >can add people to the census). Good point. I don't think we accounted for that. I'll have to relook that one. >Also, in Clooz I, the remarks that I had added to individuals generally >took up one line. Now the remarks take up to 8 lines. Is there anyway >to change this? I'll look again, but I'm not changing the design of the whole report, and there was very little room left for remarks. The point was to make the reports mimic as close as possible the original censuses, which don't have a space for remarks generally. >In Clooz II, under Sources, the censuses have a number after them. Why? >Is it numbered as I used a particular census? This is discussed in the manual under converting from 1.23. We had to create census sources for you, but we numbered them arbitrarily. You need to go in and edit the source titles. There were no source titles for censuses in 1.23. >I am listening to Liz' talk with Dick Eastman talking about sources. Is >it possible that I need to go in and clean up my sources or did Clooz II >figure out what was a document, what was a book, etc.? I wasn't really >good about what I put in sources originally. Again, this is discussed in the manual and in help in Clooz under converting from 1.23. Please read that.
