Title: Add events to multiple people records
Post by: Roger99 on Wednesday 16 March 22 17:42 GMT (UK)

I want to add social events into peoples timelines eg "20/06/1837 Queen Victoria ascended throne"   How best to add this to every person in my database who was alive at that date?   Also how to extend that to my other databases - I have 4, one for each grandparents line.

Welcome to RootsChat Roger99,
You have posted on the "How to use RootsChat" board, I'll ask a moderator to move your post to "the common room", I think that may help to get some more responses.

It's a great idea to add events into family history, I have done it when writing up my family story, but haven't done it on my actual tree so can't actually help with your query.  :)
