Dick,
If you can hold on awhile longer, I've heard the new Version 7.0 has a
Source Writer, based on this author's work, to help us with writing
sources properly.

Well, as any family historian knows - when they start, the records are
collected, and then begin to pile up. At some point, there needs to be
"get the records, sources straight" and properly sourced. Well that
time has arrived.
I have purchased "Evidence Explained," cleaned the family file from
errors and trimmed it down to be just those that have a relationship.
I am getting confused as to how to use the Evidence Explained and
Legacy sourcing. I will use a birth certificate as an example.
Source List name is - Virginia Department of Health, Bureau of Vital
Records and Health Statistics
Author is - Virginia Department of Health, Bureau of Vital Records
and Health Statistics
Title is - Certificate of Live Birth
Publication facts is - Richmond, Virginia Department of Health, Bureau
of Vital Records and Health Statistics, 1975.
Detail is - Certificate of Live Birth No. No. 99999999-99
Thus the entry appears as " Virginia. Department of Health, Bureau of
Vital Records and Health Statistics, Certificate of Live Birth
(Richmond, 1975), birth certificate 145-70-009333 (1975)."
Is this the best way to get it close to Evidence?
