Anyone have a thought on when to use "Personal Knowledge" and when to
use "Interview"? My parents, aunts and uncles told me a lot of
information about their large family (Mom, Dad and 10 children who
all lived well into adulthood). I did not write a transcript of the
discussions but did enter them into my genealogy software.
Now that I have Legacy and I'm trying to "clean up" my ancient
sources, I first decided to re-source them as "Personal Knowledge as
told to Cathryn Vallevieni date". Now I'm thinking the source should
be "Interview" since the personal knowledge was told to me. It seems
the only time "Personal Knowledge" would be technically correct is
for the person entering the information (my personal
knowledge). Every other circumstance someone told me or wrote to me
the information which would be either "Interview" or "Correspondence".
I've reviewed the Archives but thought I'd ask for more input.
Thanks.
