Would you mind sharing that text file?

I maintain a text file on my computer in my genealogy folder. In it, I
give an example of how each source should read, to use with my
most-referenced master sources. So I have a header for World War I
Draft Registraton Cards, different Census years, Social Security Death
Index, Vital Records [broken down by original records viewed online,
copies received from town clerks, records based on index information
only, etc.], City Directories, etc. So when I start sourcing, I open
up this text file, and then I simply replace the specific info - this
way my source details are pretty much worded the same from person to
person.
The way I use master source clipboard is, for example, to click on
that source for each piece of info I got for that person and perhaps
their parents or spouse (depending on type of record), then I use it
again for a new person, and edit the detail to be correct for the new
source and people. The wording follows the same pattern, and I don't
have to retype some stuff like "accessed at Ancestry.com on
such-and-such a date".
Just some ideas to share - hope it helps someone else.
Susan
