Should lines 3 and 4 be indexed? All they contain are the year of birth and the slave holder's name?

If you go to the Project Instructions and look in the section "What to remember about this project," look under the third bullet where it says, "If a record does not include a name for the primary person, you should still index the record..." and then it continues to tell you more. You would still index the birthdate and the slave holders name and, if applicable, any other data that is asked for. Hope this helps. Marilyn Jones

I am so sorry about that. That must be a regional word that is used where I live! Have a great rest-of-the-week!

airland

yes it helps. That is what I thought. However, I do not know what a bullet is. I read all the instructions I could find.

I figured out what "bullet" meant. Thanks

LOL - no I am just old and out of the "loop". I've heard the term, and I'm proud of myself for figuring it out.
