In Mr. Newman's message, he mentioned something that might be close to the Witness (as used in The Master Genealogist) feature. A way to connect the folks who witnessed wills, worked on roads, were listed as living near (neighbor) or in some manner had a connection to our elusive ancestors. I have made an attempt to add an "event" using the person's name in Family Origins, but then all the different connections to folks in the community aren't listed for that person. The person who performed marriages would identify a community. Folks who attended an estate sale (as listed in probate papers) might or might not be related. I'm sure most of you have similar experiences with trying to identify WHICH John Jones your ancestor might be and which family his wife belongs to or where he lived before he moved to where we found him.
