Here is my problem with a file numbers system, if you need all the documents
for one person or for a married couple, it will take you quite a bit of time
to look up all the numbers you need in Legacy and then go to your filing
system to pull all the documents and you still might miss one or two. If I
need all the documentation I need on a particular individual or a married
couple everything is in one place.
HOWEVER, whatever way you do it Legacy meshes right in. If you like to file
by a file number then Ancestry will keep track of those numbers for you. If
you keep everything in a single file for each person/couple then ancestry
certainly won't work against you. You can just leave the file number blank
or use it for something else (maybe if you have a large library of books,
manuscripts, Bible transcripts etc you could use the file number to come up
with a library call system for your bookcases)
