G2G: How do you add a town to the dropdown menu?

Question

Do I add it or request it be added?  Bernard died there in 1894. Doing some research I found it is now a ghost town. Baursville, Lacava, Texas.  http://www.texasescapes.com/CentralTexasTownsSouth/Baursville-Texas.htm

You can type in the correct place in the location field. The drop down list is just an option.

I can't even find that place in TSHA's Handbook of Texas, and it's not in GNIS list of domestic names.

I googled and got several hits. There is a cemetery there. https://www.findagrave.com/cemetery/2273/baursville-cemetery

That is about the only thing left with the name. Wonder now if I can get it added to ghost towns category.

Answer 1

Basically you can't. The list is provided by Family Search. You could try going to Family Search and requesting that it is added.

I thought Ales controlled the locations. Oh well.... thanks

Answer 2

Use the "county and state" as a category instead of the town name.
