Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing the IGI
The IGI is an index (International Genealogical Index). It is not any sort of real record - marriage, birth, or death.. You could create a Master Source, IGI if you like, or you could just use the IGI as a pointer to further research. I, myself, do not use the IGI as a source. Elizabeth researching the descendants of William and Sarah (Patterson) Thompson - Original Message - From: Gavin Nicholson [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am just after the best way to Source the IGI. When I select Internet there is a message in RED that says I should select the type of record I want. If I select a marriage record then the best thing to select to get an online option is Fraktur. I don't even know what a Fraktur is!!

RE: [LegacyUG] Sourcing the IGI
Gavin: The IGI contains several different types of records and the source citation format varies depending on where you found your particular record. The Pedigree Resource File and Ancestral file databases, for example, are basically online transcripts of family group sheets submitted by individuals and should be cited that way. The IGI also contains transcripts from original church records and other original records. Those would be cited as transcribed records online. And then, some of the listings in the IGI are simply indexes created from other records. You need to examine the information at the bottom of the screen for your record to identify the original source and then develop your citation accordingly. If you still have questions then, please re-post with the additional detail about specifically where the record was found. By the way, a fraktur is a hand-drawn and often illuminated certificate, usually done as a family keepsake.

RE: [LegacyUG] Sourcing the IGI
You are mixing terminology here. The IGI does NOT include the PRF and AF databases. When you do a search at familysearch.org all the databases are searched (unless you specify otherwise). The search result screen is broken into sections for the different databases. The records for the IGI, PRF, AF and other records have been merged together at newFamilySearch. But the IGI itself is a seperate and distinct database. It is essentially a record of temple work and does contain different types, such as extracted records and patron submissions. Your point about looking to see the original source is valid, as extracted records (although secondary) are more likely to be accurate.

RE: [LegacyUG] Sourcing the IGI
Gary: You are absolutely right. The problem is that many people refer to records at FamilySearch as IGI and don't distinguish between the different databases. New researchers, especially, often don't realize they need to look at the lower part of the screen to get the details. For that reason, when someone speaks of citing a record in the IGI, I ask for clarification.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing the IGI
The meaning of Fraktur that I know is a type of hand printing favored among the old Pennsylvania Germans, using different colors, used often for certificates and documents to be framed. I do not know why it should be a category in the IGI. Elizabeth C Gavin Nicholson wrote: Hello again listers!
