One could also add it to the Notes at the end of a Residence Event if a census is only used as a Source.

For example, 459 Flanders St. John Doe, age 45, white, male, married, [etc] Jane Doe, age 43, white, female, married, [etc.] [Flanders St. no longer exists. The name changed to Oak Road in 1943 and then in 1972 the road was completely blocked off to build the Silver Maple Mall which now has a street address of 1294 Silver Maple Lane] Sourcing a web page depends on what is on the web page. Is it a marriage book transcription? Is it a cemetery survey? Is it someone's GEDCOM? michele -----Original Message----- From: Tony Rolfe Sent: Monday, November 14, 2011 11:10 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [LegacyUG] Two sourcing questions Question 1. I have a few streets in censuses which no longer appear on maps. When I find out where the street used to be, I like to put that information into the notes field for the location. However, there doesn't appear to be a way to add a source to the notes field. In other words, when I go View > master Lists > Locations, select a location and edit it, there is no "source" button. Am I missing something? Question two. What is the best way to source a web page? I know how to do the source, I'm more interested in the best way to ensure that the information doesn't disappear when the web page concerned is updated, deleted etc. One possibility would be to screen-print the page and attach the jpg to the source, but sometimes the information spreads over more than one physical screen or scrolls down and then screen prints aren't really useful. Any advice would be appreciated.
