I also find the official Lecacy way of recording sources a bit over the top, so I have recorded mine under the Research Notes tab as follows:
Birth: He was born before registration commenced in Scotland (1855), therefore his baptism details have been used to establish his date and place of birth. Baptism: LDS film number 1041957, items 1 and 2. Parish records of St Ninians, SCT. (I have a copy) Marriage 1: Not found in England or Scotland. Marriage 2: www.freebmd.org.uk 1853 December quarter, registered at Islington. 1b/318 (I have a copy of certificate) Marriage 3: www.freebmd.org.uk 1867 September quarter, registered at Kensington. 1a/339 (I have a copy of certificate) Death: not found. Census: www.ancestry.co.uk Birth and Marriage details of his children: www.freebmd.org.uk Baptisms of his children: www.ancestry.co.uk, the London Parish Records Collection. Asylum Records and London Directory entries: Personal visit to London Metropolitan Archives 2008. I include this in any reports that I am sending to relatives, so that they can both see that I have done my homework, and retrace my steps if they want to. It's also a good way for me to check what is missing.
