In batch MS2X-64R, image 2 entry 1, the man was killed in a motorcycle accident

on the road to "Carretera a Guapiles, Guapiles, Pococi. The indexer put Guapiles only. I believe it should include everything that the record stated. However, on some project they have said if an event happened near a town, write the name of the town. That may be referring to birth events. Am I correct to put Carretera a Guapiles, Guapiles, Pococi?

    So odd - I just answered that question at 3:50 on the Indexing Chat page. Anyway - I would not use Carretera a (road to) but only index the geographic location. We don't index descriptive words.
