Yes. One for each. Anyway, that's how I do it.

Hi Bruce,
Thanks!

Another question with regards to census.  I can see doing it exactly as
you state if there is only one household that I'm interested in on the
sheet/document.  But, what about if there are two?  Say Bob and Pete
Smith are brothers and each have a family and they live next door to
each other and appear on the same census page?   Would you just
duplicate it and have one labeled with the MRIN for Bob and the other
labeled for the MRIN for Pete? Or, should I make this census record a Master Source document?

Appreciating your help,
Brian

*****************

Brian,
Yes I do.  they would be
mrin-xMAR-name-description
mrin-xCEN-name-description
mrin-xBIR-name-description
mrin-xDEA-name-description

Hope that helps,
Bruce

Hi Ken,
Thanks for the recommendation.  Since I've just started using Legacy
I'm
not that familiar with the MRIN, but it sounds like a useable system.
Do you use MRIN filing method for documents (marriage certificates,
census records, etc.) as well?

Thanks,
Brian

Here is what I am doing.
Since I use the MRIN filing method, I label all pictures as follows:

mrin-xPIC-name(s)-description

Where x is H (Husband), W (Wife), C (Couple), or n (for unmarried
children where 1 is the first child, 2 the second, etc.)
If I have a group photo, I use the MRIN of either the primary
person/couple or the oldest person/couple and use F (Family) or G
(Group) for the x
I am thinking of adding the date taken (or ABTdddd as suggested by
another) in part of the name.

Just my 2 cents.

Hi,
Does anyone have any recommendations for how to name photos on one's
computer?  I had started by saving them as last-name first-name
date-taken.  That works well for pictures of only 1 person where I
know
the date it was taken.  It doesn't work all that well for group
photos.
Or old photos that I've scanned where I don't know the date it was
taken.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Brian
