when entering names into my member tree, is there a way to put two drastically different names in the same entry and still have the program recognize the names and search for both? For instance, if I am searching for a man whose name was changed to "John Smith" when he emigrated to America, and there are many documents for him by that name, but his actual name was "Yefim Smyrnov" and there may also be some documents under that name, how do i put both of those names into my tree? And if I can put both names in, would the automatic search hints search for both names?
