Both Kathi and Walt had good proposals. But I think I want to submit. It's not that complicated: The original belongs to June, she has to be the repository. In the main source she is the publisher, if not any other given, and you also add user file number, because you have some kind of paper copy, filed somewhere. So: Map x, under birth certificates: June. What Kathi says about Name in master source list is important to keep track of your information's. Allsways give your source a classification of what sort it is. Since you may exclude master sources from reports you may create "dummy sources": Two or more parts in an article regarding to different cases. Undeppended people - "islands", assumed to related, name the source X family, exclude from reports and you have a tool to tag them.
