Julia, This is another of those personal preference topics, despite the webinar Geoff gave on entering a census. You might want to check the archives for more background.
But I think the answer is the former -- attach image to every census source used. I attach my images to the master source, but then I am a bit of a "lumper" and have my census sources set up by county in the US. This way all the images I have for a county are available in one place. So far it works for me. Also, I believe that you are really only storing one image, just linking it multiple times. I don't generally enter census data (or even look for it??) for non-direct line families. At least that's where I am in my research right now. I will enter events and fully source them for everyone in the family that contains my direct line ancestor, though. It's very easy to do using the event and source clipboards. If I started "branching out" and doing more extended family research, I would hand that census information in the same way. --Paula ________________________________ From: julia m <aga...@hotmail.com> To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Sent: Wed, April 18, 2012 9:22:39 PM Subject: [LegacyUG] Do you attach a census image for every single source? I would like to know how other people handle the attaching of census images for their sources. Do you attach a census image for every census source used? Or do you only attach the image just for direct lines and transcribe it in the source detail for extended families? Thanks!
