    3. <<snipped>> I would advocate that Gedcom should develop other event titles to reflect other than Christian practice. <<snipped>> However, within Family Historian, there is the facility to create custom events and attributes, so that surely takes care of other titles? There are many events that aren't standard in FH, but I've managed to get it to suit me, and I'm not that clever with software.

    3. Yes, I have agreed with Adrian before that custom events are a great help. However, they will inevitably be "each to his own" and this makes cross-fertilization between different gedcom files problematic to say the least. I'd prefer standardization. I suppose, though, that "each to his own" would make it a brave soul who dared to define an improved standard. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Greenbee Sent: 13 January 2014 14:21 To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [FHU] Christenings vs baptism <<snipped>> I would advocate that Gedcom should develop other event titles to reflect other than Christian practice. <<snipped>> However, within Family Historian, there is the facility to create custom events and attributes, so that surely takes care of other titles?
