Is there a standard way to do it?
I'm not sure that I see the need to record this information any differently to any other Residence Event. The fact that the people themselves provided the information makes it just as reliable as any time they have provided such information. I mean, if their Marriage Certificate gave Anytown as the groom's residence, would you not just create a Residence Event and use the MC as the Source? In this case I would simply create a Residence Event and use the Census as the Source. -- 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).
