Brian,
although I am not a skilled user of the forum I will do my very best.

As you recommended, I made a feature request with a link to the
specification page and added a handmade PDF-file with some examples.

Regarding the center of the report I think this should be the place - as
already written down in the specification page.
However, I think there should be three kinds of the report - as to be
seen in the attached file:
1. One or more places with families and summary of events
2. One or more places with persons and events
3. One or more family with places and summary of events

Regards

Thomas
