Alternate names on family trees

When you're adding records to your family trees, if the name on the record IN ANY WAY DIFFERS from the name you already have, please click the Alternate name button. Please do this for the soldier and all his family members. If you're not sure if you've already added a particular alternate name, go ahead and click it just in case.

This will help with analysis of some the name algorithms we've been working on (or something like that; I'm really not sure how it all works).

  1. Is it alright for us to click the Preferred name button instead of the Alternate name button when we know it is a more accurate version of the name than what is on the tree?
