    place name Born in Luxembourg

    September 21, 2022 edited July 12, 2024 in Family Tree

    there is a village called Born in the commune of Mompach,Echternach,Luxembourg

    but it is not accepted as a standardized name.

    in english it is probably considered an error to be born in Born , but this is a real village name in Luxembourg.

    could this be fixed?

    thank you

      Born should now be in as a standardized place. Please verify. Remerschen, Luxembourg as town and commune has also now been standardized.

      You can suggest a new location by going to https://www.familysearch.org/research/places/ and clicking Suggest a new place in the top left hand corner.

      familysearch would decide within 24 hours about adding a new location is written there .

      seems the suggestion was refused

      Where did you see this "24 hours" thing? I've had replies to my suggestions literally years later. In fact, most of them are long enough after submission that I don't remember the details by the time they reply.

      Do keep in mind that you are never limited to standardized names in Family Tree. Just enter "Born, Mompach, Echternach, Luxembourg." and link it to "Mompach, Echternach, Luxembourg" for now like this:

      This is correctly entered and correctly standardized.

      I see that only two towns in Mompach are currently listed in the Places database: https://www.familysearch.org/research/places/?reqParents=11958523&reqParentsLabel=Municipality&reqParentsType=201&includeIsParent=true&primaryText=Mompach%2C%20Echternach%2C%20Luxembourg&searchTypeaheadInputText=Search%20Within%3AMompach%2C%20Echternach%2C%20Luxembourg

      Born is not the only place not in the database yet.
