I am indexing obituaries of Missouri and found out that project instruction does not explain how to add such category as greatgrandchildren for "others" to the deceased person. In the second part of the batch I put "grandchild," but in the last part I left this field blank (the last piece is about the same persons).

Nevertheless, I still do not know how to index this category in the right way. Can anyone help me to resolve the issue, please?

Thank you.

    Great Grandchild are indexed as Grandchild, or grandson, Granddaughter (whatever applies). Just like step families, where we ignore the "step", we also ignore the word "great" and just index the relationship.
