Tracking residence and land ownership records is a major tool for assembling records in someone's life journey. There is no "collection" category nor "residence" fields available currently beyond the place of birth / death / cemetery, and that doesn't include land records. As we build out "collections" this would be a great way to identify and document our ancestors.

Joe Brous Buttrill I use events such as "Residence of John Smith Household in 1870" as a means of documenting residences found in in census records. The Timelines of the people in each household then show their residency at the date of the census.

1 Lady Jane Grey I think this is a good idea. I would also like to have source collections be more flexible. It would be great if I could make up a collection for many documents which fall into the same category.
