Geoff, If you were quoting from the book in the Event Notes, would you ALSO put the same text into the citation??? (in my case it's a long hand-written letter, where I want the individual's narrative of his grandfather's story IN the reports) --Paula in Texas Researching: Adair Baker Beasley Benson Betz Bigley Blagrave Burton Chapman Clement Clough Coppernoll Costine Daulton Dinwiddie Doody Ellis Exline Field Floran Floyd Gates Goodale Gordon Gump Hale Harbaugh Hind Hopkins Hughes Hurdle Jones Klein Koyle Laswell McDonald Misner Passwaters Pelton Roberts Roche Ryburn Short Singer Sullivan Weller Williams

No need to do too much more than that, Geoff -----Original Message----- From: Dean Adams [mailto:dgadam...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, September 16, 2011 12:16 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: [LegacyUG] Sources - Geoff's Method Geoff includes all the info from a source in the source detail, whether the source is a census, obituary, etc. How is a source such as a book of family history handled? It contains pages and pages on many individuals and families. This appears to be too much to include in a single source.
