They remain filed under the parent's MRIN until such time as they marry and 
have a MRIN of their own.   If they do not marry then all documents pertaining 
to them remain filed under the parent's MRIN.

Tony,

I also use the MRIN filing system and have set up online folders for each 
marriage.   Following the advice from the Legacy user who originally devised 
this system, I renumber MRINs according to my 4 ancestral lines as follows:


My maternal grandfather is MRIN 1000-1999   

My maternal grandmother is MRIN 2000-2999
My maternal grandfather is MRIN 3000-3999
My paternal grandmother is MRIN 4000-4999


Census records are filed under the MRIN of the head of the household.
Unmarried children are filed under the MRIN of their parents
When a child marries, I move the birth certificate into the MRIN folder for the 
marriage and add the marriage certificate and any census records or other 
information during the time of the marriage.

If a child marries for a second time, the marriage has a different MRIN number 
under which I include the marriage certificate, census and other info during 
the time of this marriage and finally the death certificates.

The documents are numbered  e.g. MRIN-1, -2, -3 etc.


For each line I have a binder(s) for paper documents, filed under the MRIN 
number.  If I do not have any documents for a marriage then there is no divider 
for that number in the binder.  At one time I printed out the census records 
but no longer do that to cut back on the size of the binders.

Hope this helps.

Christine
