Well, you have fallen in the same trap as I did starting with Legacy. I now add
the census records for the Norwegian 1801 census splitted on one main source for
each farm. I use a lot of documents from Diplomatarim Norvegicum, 22 volumes,
20000 documents. You would add DN as the main source, or even not a volume, but
the single document.
I hardly use the "Current source detail", except for page information I want to
find easy.
My advice is to find your notes and split your source.
If you want further advice, send me a mail off list.
