I just recently renumbered the MRINs to use the MRIN filing system, however I still had over 800 families so what I have done is number a file folder 1-25 then another for 26-50 and so on. Not a unique number for each family but I don't have room for more than 800 file folders and I can live with the slight inconvenience of looking through one file folder. One thing I am going to do though is have a unique file folder for all my direct ancestors.
