If no birth date
If the individual has no death or burial date or place, the Living flag is set based on the time elapsed from the person's birth. If no birth date exists for this person, TNG can interpret that in different ways.
TNG will flag people as deceased or living on import, based on the value you specify for If no birth date, assume:
- Person is deceased (If you choose this option, you will need to manually flag people with no birth information that you know are living as Living. You can then use the Backup / Restore Living Flag to manage the manually set living flags.
- Person is living (If you use this option please be aware that you may have ancestors further back in the line who will be flagged as living because you do not have any dates)
You may want to consider setting the option to Person is deceased and then manually set the Living flag for people who you know are living but have no living date.
If no death date
If no death or burial date or place exists for an individual, the living flag is calculated from the time elapsed from the individual's birth date. Individuals younger than the age indicated here are considered living.
By default, the maximum age to be considered living is 110 years.
