I have a different issue.  I am gathering data from living relatives
about their (living) families.  I have made phone calls and sent
emails to a variety of people.  How should I source these items?

I use the person's name as the Master Source and then for the Source Detail I put "Oral history" or "E-mail [date]" or "Letter [date]".

I have gleaned quite a bit of information from various notes compiled/collected by an Uncle who did quite a bit of work on our family history some years ago. Where I have been unable to verify this data from another source or where I'm not sure what his original source was I have cited it as his name and then "Research papers" as the Detail.
