Then why am I getting the following output for my 1810 census tag in a
Journal report (TMG v6.2)?

iii.NATHANIEL HAWKINS was born on 10 Aug 1795.
James and Nathaniel was probably a free white male, age 10 and under 16, in
Samuel Magruder's household, on the 1810 Census of Montgomery county, MD.
iv.JAMES HAWKINS JR was born on 31 Dec 1797.
James and Nathaniel was probably a free white male, age 10 and under 16, in
Samuel Magruder's household, on the 1810 Census of Montgomery county, MD.

Both have the role of free wh male 10-16 with a default sentence of:
[RF:free wh male 10-16] was probably a free white male, age 10 and under
16, in [R:Head of Family]'s household, on the 1810 Census <of [L]>.
<[M3].><[M0]>

With all the posting to this TMG List, it's a wonder we get anything else
accomplished.

Thanks for your help.
