I'm having a problem wrapping my head around the way SourceWriter labels BMD records.
What do you call a photocopy of the actual form your ancestor filled out to register a BMD? (I have some with and without "Genealogical Purposes Only" stamped on them.) Prior to SourceWriter I was calling them "birth registrations", because (in my head), they are not certificates. But SourceWriter seems to paint them all as "birth certificates" and stamped copies (for Genealogical Purposes) as short forms of birth certificates. I know it's ultimately up to me, and I can change the Source Detail Certificate Type to read registration rather than certificate, but I would like to know what the correct name for these documents is and how they are handled by most. Thanks very much!
