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.
