I've come across a bug or complication, I'm afraid, relating to filters acting on Dated Places.
 
 
I created a single-stage filter in my db for People born in Germany
 
{People with the <birth data>: Place="Germany"}
 
 
The individuals selected by the filter include a person who was born in Schleswig-Holstein in 1854.
 
At this period it was part of Denmark; Germany itself did not exist before 1871.
 
 
A similar filter for people born in Denmark
 
{People with the <birth data>: Place="Denmark"}
 
fails to show this person.
 
 
The Place hierarchy for Schleswig-Holstein in the database is
 
Schleswig-Holstein< Denmark before 1865; <Prussia from 1867 to 1871; <Germany after 1871. The name Germany is set valid after 1871.
