Preston, Oneida County, Idaho
Dear Jimmydbrown, I am moving the new page you created to the Oneida County, Idaho page under boundary changes. I will then delete this page so all the information about the County may by found in one area. If you object to this move, please contact me and provide reasons for your objections. Thank you for your contributions to the Wiki.We all are attempting to make it the best source of information gathered in one place. Thank you Sjkennedy 12:57, 4 March 2016 (UTC)

I have no problem with the change as long as it solves the following problem. The town of Preston, Idaho has a problem with people doing research and assuming that it has always been listed as being in Franklin County (Preston, Franklin, Idaho). Many of the sources records are overlooked as they are not aware that Preston was ever part of Oneida County. I wanted anyone that did a Wiki search on Preston, Idaho or Frankly County to get the information the they were once listed as part of Oneida County. If the information is just part of Oneida County, they will never find it as they do not know to search under that county. I am sure that this is a problem with many other places in the US, so I hope you have a standard solution to meet this condition. Thank you....Jim

Jim, I am moving your original page to one including the word "Genealogy" after the name (as we have trended towards here on the Wiki). I agree with your comment. Please continue adding comments to the Wiki! We value your input. Beverly Brepouille/Wiki Support Team (talk) 21:13, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
