Good morning all. I have been here since 3.45am trying to compare two files and transfer some information in the notes from file BATES to file CULLODEN. The BATES file does not have any sources just copious notes. I am trying to copy what is in BATES notes and not in CULLODEN notes from notes to notes and then later sort out the source information as I still have not grasped the source entry as yet. I am going to have something to eat hoping for a reply. Many thanks in advance

I've been looking for this for a while. Now I can stop worrying about this one.

It's not according to Elizabeth Shown Mills, but no one should have trouble finding the entry. All the essentials for looking it up are there.

More specifically, I have a lot of ancestors who lived in the same county. Actually, I have ancestors families who are on the same census page. I'm really uncertain if I would, say for example, make more than one 1860 source in my "master source" list if I have more than one ancestor in the same county, or even the same census page. Also, if each one is a separate source, do you list the ancestor's name first so you can keep them apart? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me on this.
