Per the discussion on the RootsMagic category, I would like to use the “Place” field for the historical name of the place at the time of the event and the “Standard Place” field for the name of the place in modern times.
Then I would like to search the database and to print reports with my choice of “Place” or “Standard Place.” My family is from
Eastern Europe and many of the towns have been a part of different countries. In the earlier discussion, I was surprised how many researchers have traced their tree around the world and had the same issue.
Thanks!
