Julia, I have several family lines located in Philadelphia around the turn of the last century. I create a master source for the (for instance) 1891 Philadelphia directory, and separate details for each family line found within that directory. An image of the cover or frontpiece for the directory would be attached to the master source, and an image of the appropriate page would be attached to the details for each family line. When I have multiple individuals from the same family line on the same page, I transcribe all of the information into the detail text/comments, and just use the source copy function to attach identical entries to the appropriate events for each individual.
