Thanks, Sue! That seems like a good use of master source and fields.

This works well for what I need and produces an adequate citation.

For my Find A Grave sources, I put the memorial #, as well as the

the person who created the entry, in the Source Detail Comments section
(on
the Text/Comments tab of the Source Detail), and check the box, "Add
these
comments to the Source Citation on Reports". Then I end up with a
Footnote/Endnote Citation like this:

Many times a photo, or image such as your obituary may be, that has been
added by someone other than the person who originally created the entry
on
Find A Grave. In that case, I add something like "Photo added by
xxxxxx" to
the Comments, so that both people who created the page are credited.

Subject: [LegacyUG] obituary on website as source
I want to use an obituary that is transcribed on a Find A Grave memorial
as a source. I created a Master Source using "Obituary > Newspapers >
Online images (issued by unrelated content provider)." On the Source
Info tab I filled in the Source List Name and the Title only. On the
Detail Information tab I filled in all the fields beginning with Article
and down to and including Date Accessed. The output is as follows:
"Clint A. ("Chip") Low," The Highlander News (Brownwood, TX), 25 May
2011, p. 37; digital images, Find A Grave (www.findagrave.com
<http://www.findagrave.com> : accessed
15 Dec 2015).
The problem is that I need to add the Find A Grave memorial # to the
record. I had been doing that in the File ID field located at the
bottom of the Detail Information page. But I now believe that to be
wrong as this field is for some other intended use and, in any event,
does not show up in any output that I can find. Does anyone have a
suggestion on where to include the memorial # or how they would have
handled this source differently?
Thank you,
Barton
