Hi Kathy and Cheri,

I use Higher Sources in much the same way as Kathy, for example I have
each UK Census year as a Higher Source with each individual household as a
linked lower source. It hadn't dawned on me until you brought it up that I
can't get a list of Events linked to these Higher Sources.
I'm sure that Bill would consider adding the ability to do this if enough
people requested it. Bill?
Cheri, Places aren't treated in quite the same way, you can do a 'Search'
for Events that occured in a Higher Place and get a list of these even
though they don't appear on the Links Tab for that place in Places View.
