I am using SourceWriter. The copy I have has Sibsey Register from January 1788 to January 1789. It doesn't give page, location, etc. I'm new to citations so I want to start out on the right foot. Any help is appreciated.

I have many of the same records, but taken direct from FamilySearch and I use the generic Online Database template which seems to work very well. But if you have copies of the original records (presumably you mean Parish Register entries), why are you using an Index as your Source? Copies of the originals are a much better quality Source and must surely contain a lot more information than is present in an Index. What do you mean by "not the detailed 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).
