Because of migrations many families has made minor changes to their last names, that have to be properly listed.

The german last name von Aberbach could be changed in some latin american country to de Averbach and in other country to Aberbach.

The right listing of this surnames is:

A

Aberbach

Aberbach, de

Aberbach, von

In the current version they are listed:

A

Aberbach

D

De Aberbach

V

Von Aberbach

I hope it could be fixed.

Thanks,

Carlos

We had a discussion about a Surname Prefix (see conversation Proposal: Surname prefixes.

Because we ran out of time for GenoPro 2007, this feature has been postponed.

I read the forum about Surname Extensions. There was requested some examples of other genealogy software.

GeneWeb has solved the issue as showed in the attached files, so it could be included in a future version of Genopro.

It also shows the Titles in the proper way.
