I think that Family Tree on Family Search has the potential to make adding sources a really desirable thing. I like being able to add direct links to Census records and easily create custom source records. Similar to what you suggest, I now find myself looking at my ancestors to see which ones have the most sources and the most detail. Wikitree is similar (except that it is cumbersome with respect to citing Census records).Raynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1527613590529958801.post-5805018918617799702013-05-09T10:42:40.880-07:002013-05-09T10:42:40.880-07:00Great Article.

I recently started updating information in FamilySearch and trying to tie my family together with existing information. I found it all fairly easy. I tried the source thing and found it difficult, but today decided to give it another try. It is still difficult. I guess I am spoiled with ancestry.com where you find the source and it adds it. Is there an easier way? I have been finding the source, adding to my sources and then attaching it. I see I can have multiple windows open, and although easier, still seems very timeconsuming.Laurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09312025277661530407noreply@blogger.com
