When I read this (posted as a comment in another topic) I wondered again if there was a way to put individuals into your tree and identify them as unsourced. I have a number of branches (not as important as my main line, but still of interest) with names, dates, children, spouses, etc that are found on family trees on ancestry.com without sources. The information is so specific it seems they have family knowledge so I hate to leave those individuals out of my tree. But I would like some way to identify them as unsourced. I suppose there is a "report" that wil show me a list of unsouced individuals; I haven't come to the point yet of using reports since I'm still working on cleaning up my database.
I've sent messages to several of the owners of the trees, but rarely receive an answer. I know there are colors to use in Legacy, but those are used for family lines, is that not correct? I'm thinking of adding something in parenthesis after the given name of these individuals - Maybe in the prefix option - such as NS for "not sourced." Would that be a mistake? Is there a better way to tell at a glance when a family is pulled up, without having to go into each individuals window? I have enough cleanup to do on main family lines before I start on the branches that are further out. But I hate to leave out information that I hopefully will be able to check more throughougly later. Would appreciate your thoughts.
