I have been using Legacy for many years as a record for me and my children
of our family history.
I have never used sources, instead putting information into notes, or even
adding events - for example I have an event 'Education' then have added an
event 'About Education' where I just put notes.
I have had wonderful success finding sources for my family history on
FamilySearch. Now my question is will it be better to put them into Family
Tree now and sync them to Legacy later, or put them into Legacy and sync
them into Family Tree later?? It does take extra time to do both right
now. Th
