frequently
– Easily find these types of events in Person View or in reports
– Exclude these types of events from reports
Examples:– Census for each year, eg 1841, 1851…
– Assisted Immigration

Non-Person “People”• Why do it?
– Single place to hold all info and sources about colonies, towns, ships
– Can see multiple links, eg. all residents in one town, or all immigrants on one ship
– Show places, ships, etc in Associates window
– Can easily exclude from reports and charts by tag types, roles and flags
