I have a marriage document (both the license and certificate all-in-one). As a newbie, I've spent a few hours trying to figure out the best way to enter the information. I went searching through the archives to see if I could find various recipes you all use with maybe the pros and cons. I'm not finding anything like that. I'm very interested to learn how practically to use Legacy. So, if you wouldn't mind sharing your recipes, pointing me to related blog(s), or a link or search terms into the archives that would be great.
The sorts of things I'm wondering about include: - I've got the doc scanned as a jpg. Although a pic format, I assume I only attach as a file, but to what? - License part is signed by county judge - where does this fact go? - Certificate includes the minister - where does this fact go? - Two witnesses are included (not my surnames afaik) - where do these go? I'm just not sure what source(s) and/or event(s) or both these items should be included on, and in which fields. Note, text, comments, etc??? What I've done: I added "signed by county judge" to the notes section of the Marriage License event. This will print as part of a report (at least FGS). I'd like to add a "joined in marriage by rev." too, but adding this to notes on a detail source citation only prints in the footnotes, not in the content of the reports.
