Your question implies that you have one Master Source for every single household in a Census. This is OK if it works for you, but not what most of us would recommend. I have one Master Source for each country each year (England 1841, Wales 1841, Scotland 1841 etc) and all the specifics go into the Source Details. I just enter 5 6 into the Page field. It sometimes happens that a family is split between 2 pages which are 2 consecutive folios. In those case I enter 5 6 into the Page field and 123 124 into the Folio field, but I then use Override to change the wording to folio 123, page 5 folio 124, page 6. Incidentally, I don't enter each person's name in the ID of Person field unless the household includes only 1 person. I write household of Joe Bloggs so the citation is identical for everyone in the household. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).

Hence the census source is always linked to Events for specific individuals.

Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing UK Census
I usually join the two pages into one image and give it one source. Country/State/County (however that works for your country), year... There's a splitting of hairs that can go on here that I'm not sure is worth pursuing. --- JL Beeken JLog - simple computer technology for genealogists http://www.jgen.ws/jlog/ On 8/9/2012 1:57 AM, Ron Ferguson wrote: -Original Message- From: Jenny M Benson Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2012 9:34 AM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Sourcing UK Census On 08/08/2012 22:46, Terry L. wrote: Hi, I was about to add a UK Census to the sources, when I noticed the the family is split between 2 pages.

[LegacyUG] Sourcing UK Census
Hi, I was about to add a UK Census to the sources, when I noticed the the family is split between 2 pages. Fist page starts with the head and a couple of children, and the secon page has the rest of the family. Do I create 2 separate sorces for this? Cheers!

Terry, I don’t, I use the census references for the page with the Head on it and attach both page images to the multimedia files. Ron Ferguson http://www.fergys.co.uk/ From: Terry L.

RE: [LegacyUG] Sourcing UK Census
Thanks Ron! I think I will do the same but put in notes that there are 2 pages to this family.

[LegacyUG] Sourcing UK Census
I do something very similar to Ron. I save both images and attach them to the one source. Then I put both page numbers into the source detail.
