This is all very helpful, thank you very much.

When I enter a place into my program I put as much as I can into that field. For instance, when I enter a location for the US it might look something like this "This Town, That County, That State" with exception of Louisiana, it has Parrishes. How do you enter the specifics of a location? As in England and Ireland, I know there it is said "County This or That" unlike here where it is "This or That County". Which way is it said in Canada?

I am trying hard to get this right since a great deal of my family is from France by way of Canada to the US.
