Elizabeth,
There is no "right" or "wrong" way to name your Master Sources in
Legacy. It is an extremely flexible system, where you can develop
something to suit yourself.
If you don't want to sort by type - or name or location - then don't do
it! Do what feels/seems right to you. It will be fine. :-)
Kind Regards,
Wendy Howard

*Subject:* [LegacyUG] Source titling question
Which brings me back to my original question. What is the underlying
thought process that makes LUGers group by type rather than by name or
location? And to insert here, I do have my US Census records grouped
by type because they truly have no location other than in the source
detail attached to each census event, and none apply to any one family
but is available to use as a source for all families living at the
time. But my original source, "The Thompson and Given Families" is
groupd with other sources for "Thompson", rather than as a group which
you might call "Book". (And not grouped as Given, nor Stewart, nor
Ferguson, nor Pennsylvania, nor Ohio, nor any of the other surnames or
locations contained therein.)
