Has anyone out there got Custodian, when entering details into birth index why does mothers maiden come up totally independant of child and random, in the Index. How do I get over this. Frustrated Gina

Your are not giving people much to work on. Which site are you using? What part of the site? What sort of date? C

Clive Custodian is a programme for storing in a database, all the various records used by family historians. It is not your usual family tree programme, but ideal for a one name study. I use it, but do not understand what Gina's problem is. Jennifer

Thanks Jennifer Hadn't read the question properly (and had just stopped reasearching orphans/custodians which was maddening and totally lacking in success!). Came on here for a break and put my foot in it! Have a good weekend Clive

Thanks for responding. Jennifer my problem is you can complete entries into the birth index, but when changed to index mode, it puts child in on one line and mother in on line underneath, with nothing to relate one to the other. Cant see the point, am I doing something wrong Off to bed now, will check again tomorrow, nite all Gina
