FHSWIN - Entering Family Information (continued)
This is what is shown when the hilited "Children" button in the Name record is clicked. It is the same FORM that would be shown if the "Children" button were clicked from a "Parents" form or a "Spouse" form, but in those instances the "Parents" or "Spouse" forms would still be showing.
Children are typically "chained" together by increasing birth date when the Parent/Child relationship is established. However unknown dates of birth may result in a sequencing that is known to be incorrect. The "Move Child" button may be used to alter the sequencing of the children.
The "Select Child" button can be used to display the Name Record for the child. Children of that child could then be displayed. In this way one can easily follow a line of descendancy to its termination.
This section will conclude with some observations about the style of presentation and data entry.
