Objection had been posted concerning Baltimore, Maryland vs Baltimore (Independent City), Maryland. | |||
Didn't we discuss the emphasis on reaching out to more places rather than emphasis on FHL Catalog? Many places do not recognize Baltimore (Independent City), Maryland. It is simply Baltimore, Maryland. | |||
What's more Wikipedia mentions "Independent City" only in the article, same is true for the independent cities of Virginia as well as United Kingdom. The key is the simplicity of remembering the place names. Only in Family History Library Catalog you will find that term. [[User:Dsammy|dsammy]] 00:44, 31 May 2009 (UTC) | |||
