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.

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!!

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

2008-08-19 Thread gtempleman1
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.

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.

RE: [LegacyUG] Sourcing the IGI

2008-08-18 Thread Gavin Nicholson
This doesn't appear to work if I am doing it right. If I select marriage
records I then have the option of church records, government records or
frakturs. The church records and government records only break down into
certificates, transcriptions, registers or books. Nothing for online
sources. That brings me to the Frakturs that I mentioned in the original
e-mail which has online options (online database for example).

Is this what people are doing though? Is there a best practice when it comes
to quoting the IGI? Should I just select InternetDatabase and be done with
it?!

Gavin,

Apologies for the delay in coming back to you but I had to go out this 
afternoon.

We seem to be at cross-purposes. ViewMaster ListsSourcesADD takes you to the 
Source Creation Screen entering marriages England in the yop Searcg Box 
brings up a screen for you to select the details you wish to have in the Master 
Source.

Source Detail is then added when you choose to add the Source is from the event.

Yoy can also check Marriage Records from the text box and by making your 
selection you can also find the templates which you are looking for - including 
Family Search

 This doesn't appear to work if I am doing it right. If I select marriage
 records I then have the option of church records, government records or
 frakturs. The church records and government records only break down into
 certificates, transcriptions, registers or books. Nothing for online
 sources. That brings me to the Frakturs that I mentioned in the original
 e-mail which has online options (online database for example).

 Is this what people are doing though? Is there a best practice when it comes
 to quoting the IGI? Should I just select InternetDatabase and be done with
 it?!

 Thanks for your help,
 Gavin...

 Sorry, Gavin, I should have said marriage England, still no Scotland
 though!

 Gavin,

 ViewMaster ListsSourcesAdd then type in Census England. I'm afraid
 that the Scotland template has not been created yet, but you may be able to
 use the English by playing around a bit!

 It would be for Scotland and England.

 Cheers,

 Hello again listers!

 Thanks for all the help so far and sorry if this has been asked before
 but
 I
 have scoured Google, looked at the examples on the Legacy website (which
 appear to refer to a previous edition) and looked at the sample file
 with
 Legacy 7.0 to no avail.

 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!!

 Looking forward to your thoughts!
 Gavin...
