After making sure i have most things in my book that i want (certs, photos etc) should i have a section for things rather than them being in people order? e.g i currently have it as my nan, her paternal line, then her maternal line. In there are certs and census' after each person, with married people, children and parents just one one census page, highlighting the section and putting notes on the side of the page as to who they are, rather than having the same one 3 times. But is it better to have the census' added at the end of the paternal/maternal section with the narrative showing what x grandparent they are?
So is it better to have family sheet of man and wife, man detail, birth cert, marriage cert, death cert, census, female detail, birth cert, death cert, census. These census images will show husband/wife or child/parents, with the most recent grandparent having all their census', then their parents will have any that are earlier than the child being born and so on until the 1841. (so the further back you go the less census' there will be directly with that persons info as it will already be included with their childrens info)
Or am i best to have it without the census' and then add them in at the end? I think this would confuse my nan though, but obviously without duplicating all the census' and having one for each person it may get confusing too.
I hope that all makes sense, and i would like the census info to be in the book so cant just leave it out.
