    1. Re: Periods
    2. Ian Miles
    3. Whilst transcribing 1873 deaths I am coming across increasing unobliging corpses with multiple forenames. Since there is an extra column for the age at death the 2nd, 3rd or even 4th (!) name is often an initial with the usual full stop after it. In these cases there are often only one or two period marks after the forenames before the age. I am not trying to be silly but do I need to add a 'period' after an initial with a 'full stop'? (Hope someone is following this). I can't tell from looking at the indices & I don't want the page to look like it has a case of measles! regards Susannah Miles
