The Occupant Field is listing a church instead of a person. Following the line over to "Owner" field, is a person's or company name. How is that indexed? Presbyterian Church is not a person with a name, age, etc.


Thanks:)

    If this is Canada, Ontario—Tax Assessment Records, 1834–1899, the Project Instructions say, "Do not index information of the names of people listed in the “Remarks” column or in the “Owner” column. Do not index the names of companies, businesses, organizations, or government entities. Do not index terms such as "vacant lot," "unfinished house," or "right of way." (this would also include the name of a church) The fields are for person names only (but not the owners' names). You would skip that line.
