indexing dead relatives

evansk1

I am indexing batches of the Ireland, Dublin—Church Records, 1740–1913 project. I have a page of marriages in which some of the parents are stated as dead. Should I include this information, and how?

It's always a good idea to share your batch number so that we can see exactly what you see. That said, if your project has fields to index the names of the parents of the bride and groom, you index those names but you do not reference whether they are living or dead.
