Subject: [TMG] British vital records data entry question
Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2001 01:20:48 -0400

I need to input a few thousand British birth/marriage/death records I've
transcribed from the indices, so that I can create families for as many as
possible. The only problem I have is that I can't figure out how to put in
a birth/marr/death date of "1st quarter 1878." The indices don't give you
the exact date...

I don't want to have to put thousands of "notes" in the file, since I won't
be able to get the dates to sort right. But, I can't use a specific date
without knowing it, or it will invalidate the database.

Does anyone have a suggestion on how to handle this?
