Hello, can anyone help explain why on searches for events in a single place I am seeing both "Died" & "Death"...see here for an example.
Here are extracts from the gedcom file for 2 of the examples: DIED 0 @I3131@ INDI 1 NAME Herwald Gordon /Kirkpatrick/ 2 GIVN Herwald Gordon 2 SURN Kirkpatrick 1 SEX M 1 _UID D002F31759E9A446A926B30B73EDC7F8B474 1 CHAN 2 DATE 4 OCT 2009 1 BIRT 2 DATE 1891 2 _SDATE 1 JUL 1891 2 PLAC St Leonards, New South Wales, Australia ......then........ 1 DEAT 2 DATE 26 SEP 1951 2 PLAC Battersea District DEATH 0 @I193@ INDI 1 NAME Mary Emily /Martin/ 2 GIVN Mary Emily 2 SURN Martin 2 NICK Emily 1 SEX F 1 _UID EFEC6B1FEB10A244B95A29642E42C21E36E5 1 CHAN 2 DATE 4 NOV 2009 ........then............ 1 DEAT 2 CAUS Cardio Vascular Degeneration 2 DATE 11 NOV 1944 2 PLAC Battersea District 2 NOTE Age recorded as 80. The latter has a cause of death but I can't see why this should make a difference. Many thanks for your help |

The DEATH entry is due to you entering a cause of DEATH which TNG treats as an entirely separate event from DIED, although it uses the place from DIED.
I pointed this issue out to Darrin a couple of years back, but he had no plans on eliminating the needless DEATH entry at that time. Jim |
