Known events that occurred in Waverly, Tioga County, New York, United States are incorrectly offered only the standardization choice of " Waverly, Barton, Tioga, New York." However, Barton is a small community, not a County, and events in Waverly are not in any way related to the tiny community of Barton. In frustration, I have sometimes specified the location for known Waverly events as only "Tioga, New York, United States" rather than specify that the events were related to "Barton" which could be confusing to others. I have noticed other Tioga County events are offered choices that also do not seem reflect actual geographic locations. For example, "Tioga Center, Tioga, Tioga, New York" does not reflect actuality as near as I can tell. "Tioga Center" is a small community in Tioga County, New York, not a community as in "Tioga Center, Tioga, Tioga, New York." Thanks in advance for your assistance!
