Louise, First I would create the master source for the “Carpenter’s Log Book” or the name of the person's log book. Then I would create a travel event for each of the ship’s he sailed on with their destinations and the name of the ship. Then I would cite the new master source you created and then on the details screen, list the pages that showed that information on. hope that helps, Russ

It shows the details of the ships he sailed on, their dates and places of departure and discharge, where they went, and what he sailed as. Now how do I enter and source this? -- Louise Booth Puppet Booth Productions Hassle free entertainment for children and families www.puppetbooth.homestead.com Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
