Activities / Where am I from? / Generations / Immigrant question

Not sure where the right place is to post this question, so will start here...

When I filter the Activities / Where am I from? / Generations map by "Immigrants", some of the immigrants I'd expect to see do not show up. What is the trigger for that filter?

The records for the ancestors include a birthplace of Germany, death location in US, and have an "Other Information" field entered for Immigration on their Detail sheet.

Thanks.

    Hello Vera,

    Thank you for the quick reply! I enjoyed that it was in Portuguese - this was my first comment on the community, so I've got a bit to learn.

    From what I understand, the trigger appears as I add more information. However, I'm not sure what else I can add that I have not already included. I'll look at it a little more closely tonight to see.

    Thanks!

    Nevermind - figured it out.

    I changed the place of death to his birth country, saved it, then changed it back to the correct place in the United States. The system then recognized him as an immigrant.

    The triggers are, appropriately, just place of birth and place of death. It was just a glitch in the system.

    Best
