Dan: I don't see that the template would necessarily restrict you to just two people. If you're sourcing a transcribed *church record* you could put 'John Jones baptism (1908)' in the Subject Last Name field, transcribe or abstract the record (including the film number) under the Text/Comments tab and attach it to any pertinent individuals or events. If you're referring to a record submitted by a church member or perhaps a listing from the Ancestral File, then I think you want something like p. 347 and would probably use a template line Family Group Sheet > Privately held, although there might be another template that could work better.
Kirsten -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Dan Bateham Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2008 4:50 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: [LegacyUG] SourceWrite Template - IGI - Questions Hi Listers, Concerning the SourceWriter template: "Church records > LDS Genealogical Compilations > International Genealogical Index > Online database." I am looking for suggestions on how others might be using this template, specifically concerning the following points: 1. This template is set up for citing an IGI record with one event (i.e.: birth, marriage, or death, etc.) with a date and place. What is suggested for an IGI record that contains multiple events and places? 2. This template is set up for citing an IGI record with information for as many as two individuals in the "one" event (as referred to above). What is suggested for an IGI records when more persons are mentioned (main individual, parent(s), and a spouse)? -- Also, what is suggested when multiple events and multiple persons are mentioned in the same record? Note: I do know the IGI is not considered a "reliable" source and generally should only be used as a clue or perhaps as a pointer to original sources. However, as I do have some information from only the IGI, of which I may well never locate original documents, I am looking for some way of documenting these IGI records with the new SourceWriter template -- hopefully in accordance with Mills, page 348, item 7.34. :-) Thanks for any suggestions, Dan Bateham Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
