This is not just an expert genealogy thing. Engineers and researchers of
other professions have used similar filing methods as well. This method of

I just read with interest your digital filing system. I like the idea of
using an MRIN “prefix” to the file number. I, too, have just about
everything scanned and, since I never print documents from Legacy, having
them automatically fall together by MRIN would be very helpful. There’s

The Master Sources are not usually connected to any specific MRIN.
That's why they don't have MRIN numbers. For instance, as you mention,

Just to clarify on the use of the MRIN. In the case of a census record,

Actually, it depends on what era you are working in. You'll find the
district divided into several counties over the years including
Alexandria county back when the district included part of the Virginia.
D.C. is another one of those in which you have to watch for wandering lines.

I would also start by backing up both filesjust in case. Legacy's
merge function is highly intuitive. You'll probably find it very easy
once you start using it. Trying it with a backup gives you the freedom

11). Go to Customize / Other / Custom User ID
