Unless you already have Source named "England Marriages, 1538-1973" I'm not sure that I see the problem. Can you not just Search for all records with that Source when you want to select those which need to be verified? You can also use the Verified field in Legacy to mark those records where the FamilySeach citation has been subsequently verified. I presume you are talking about finding records on the "old" FamilySearch. When I add information from a matching record on Legacy FamilySearch and select the option to create Source, the Source which is created is called newFamilySearch. If I am finding records on the "old" FamilySearch they could be from any one of several Collections and "FamilySearch Web Site" would be much too vague a Source Name for me: I have different Master Sources for each of the Collections and "FamilySearch" and the URL are included in the full Citation. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
