  • FTM 2012 Creating Sources

    GROS = General Records of Scotland

    How do I establish a source for, say, the Birth Register or the 1841 Census for Scotland?

    The FTM example used in their tutorial is a tombstone but they dance on the keys when it they create the source. i need an idiot´s guide!

    Hi Hugo,
    Long time no see! Hope you are well.
    I did a workshop on this some time ago for our group - and I've got a pdf file with a short explanation of how to add sources and facts.
    I don't have time at the moment to upload screenshots to here, so have attached the document as a pdf file.
    It only contains brief instructions but might help. Personally I don't think there is a right or a wrong way to do this - just do what you feel comfortable with, including as much info as you think necessary.
    I also prefer to add sources manually, rather than "downloading" them from Ancestry!

      Regret I am not able to get to the group talks.
