No idea of any of that at this point. It's too recent to be able to find most records, and I don't know where the family may be located at the present time...as I said they are distant cousins, and I haven't bothered to calculate what the exact relationship is. It's just gathering family into my personal program for some future reference. It sometimes pays off to have the very distant cousins, as you can compare notes once you've confirmed relationships, and possibly solve research problems with the clues that the other adds to picture puzzle. Thanks for the ideas. Karen On Wed, Jun 5, 2013 at 6:40 PM, Jorge Todeschini < jorgetodeschini@hotmail.com> wrote: > That's funny.

You should be aware that you cannot put / in any records in FT at all. This goes for all symbols. I have been able to use hyphens in names however.
