One notable exception might be for a US census event. While it would be correct
to use the actual date of the census enumeration, one must be careful about the
timeliness of any information derived from within that event. For example,
while the data may have been given on October 15th, it was co

Kirsten,
There is quite a bit of Mills which I don't agree with as well!! I confess
that I have not read the book(s) but have read, and, indeed joined in, many
of the discussions, but that is another story . BTW. I don't add the
URLs to the citation, but include it only in the repository - can't s

Oh my goodness, Ron! This is apparently why Mills' book grew to 800+ pages.
Regarding cites for published materials, I'd recommend looking at any book or
periodical (foreign or domestic, any subject or discipline--including
genealogy, in print or digitized online) where source citations are sho
If you want to cite all 24 of the page numbers and don't want 24 citations,
then you could always fudge it a little. In the Volume field, type
"1901-1924". In the page number field, type something like "pp. 36, 45, 23,
90, ...". The reader should get the idea that the 24 page numbers are in

You live and learn! I suppose it has just never arisen that I have

Scott,
To create a copy of a Master Source you must create at least one
detail citation using it. Once you have done that you can simply go to
the Master Source list and edit that Master Source and make the changes
which you require. When you save the Master Source you are given two

I'm using SourceWriter, but not committed to it. If Basic provides
the better answer, I'll use that.
