That DOES sound good. Thank you,
Sally
I have created an event called "Family Story" (complete with " ") with the
sentence structure in all instances as ...... There is a [EventName] that
[GivenName] [-Notes].[Sources]
I put all details in the Notes section of the event. The resulting event
sentence reads something like.....
There is a family story that Mary came to the USA with her parents
etc.etc.
For the source I have a Master Source called Personal Memories - I add the
name of the person who provided the tale in the Source Details.
Work for me.
Cheers,
Jan

Hi,
When you have time, could those of you who have dealt with this tell me
what
method you used?
I have some wonderful family stories that cannot be proved, nor would
proving them make a bit of difference to the genealogy of the family in
any
way, but I would like to have them in my Legacy files for future
generations
to read once the story tellers are gone.
For instance, my Aunt Abbie told me that her Grandmother Mary Engleby came
to the USA with her parents as a small child (that has been proved). On
the
ship coming over, she got very sick & died...during preparations for her
funeral at sea someone thought they saw movement & they worked on her &
she
survived...until she died in 1916 at the age of 67. <g>
I've been putting such stories as this in Notes with the name of the
person
who told me the story as source along with the date they told me.
Does anyone have a better way? Or is this the best way?
TIA,
Sally
