A very simple way:
Open the Clipboard (in 3.3.1 Edit=>Clipboard. I think it's
slightly different in 3.2).
Click on Places and find your Weakley County in the list.
Drag it onto the Clipboard.
Enter the data for your new relative. When you enter the new
Event (birth, etc.) drag "Weakley County" from the clipboard
and drop it on top of the Place line.
Let go.
Done.
Leave the Clipboard as it is and for the next relative, drag
and drop again........
