    3. When looking at http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/Format.shtml you should be aware that such data is normally submitted as a RANDOM file in the Flat File format described in http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/Flat.html because this format allows you to mix quarters in one file. You can use ONENAME if you have batches of sequential names from the indexes but remember to put a +BREAK between batches.
