Mary, When you want to enter a category that isn't included, you click on custom event. Then you can add whatever you want, like date of first communion, name change, whatever. I have the same question about what to do about different spellings of a surname. For example, a James Forsythe who had a son whos' name is usually spelled Forsyth isn't acceptable to the ancestry program. What I sometimes do is use the other spelling as one of the middle names...

About six months ago I made a slight change to the "title" of my family tree on ancestry. Well my thinking was that it would change the ALL old to the new listing. Well it didn't. I even called ancestry about it. I was told they have people that have changed their family tree name several times and its like a new one each time along with all the old ones. Ancestry does have some holes. On the listing there is no place for communion. Names changes are hard to list. I have a nephew born with one name, his father wouldn't pay child support so when his mother remarried and his new stepfather adopted him for another name change. Years later because his father/stepfather was very very mean and brutal, my nephew changed his name again when he joined the Navy to a variation of his grandfather. I know, I know its very screwed up. Also I am working on my husbands family tree. His grandfather didn't get along with his wife's parents. She died in 1915 and he left his two children with their grandparents/in laws. He went to Pennsylvania and started a new family. We know that he died sometime in the 1960's. And no he did not change his name. Any suggestions on how to find him? I have scoured Ancestry but come up empty handed. --------------------------------- Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile. Try it now.
