City directory, multiple people listed
US—City Directories, 1823–1935 [Part D][MQ2J-GNR]
I have a question about this batch, specifically the entry of Stanton, Adelaide M married Carl Christianson. Is this what is meant by the PI—"If multiple people were listed for a single entry, index information about each one using separate entries in the data entry area.”
Should Carl Christianson be entered on a separate entry, or should he be listed as spouse?

I would index Carl as the spouse, since it states they were married. If the listing was something like Stanton, Adelaide M, Carl Christianson, then it would be two different entries.

Entry #2--Roller Wm and Clara
Since this entry doesn’t list Roller Wm and Clara as married, then would this be indexed as two separate entries. I think it should be, but just want to be sure.

Since there's no definitive proof—Clara could be a daughter, niece, whatever—this would be two separate entries. If it was Roller, Wm (Clara) or Roller, Wm, 1234 Main Street, Clara, then Clara would be the spouse.
