Re: [Gramps-users] BMD quarter date only known

[Cedric S. <ce...@no...>]

Dianne,

I don't know the best way but I can tell you what I do.

The main source of this problem for me is the General Register Office Index of 
Births, Marriages and Deaths in England and Wales. A typical entry in this 
gives year, quarter, name, district, volume and page number

1. I record the year, quarter, district, volume and page number in the 
Volume/Page field of the source.

2. I enter the year as the date of the event which is lazy of me - If I was 
starting again I would enter it as 'about March 1877' or even 'before March 31 
1877'

Hope this helps.
Cedric
