It doesn't feel right because it isn't right.  It sounds as if you've
entered the ED etc. at the Master Source Level, perhaps at the Text/Comments
tab or even somewhere on the first (Source Info) screen.  For the second
source you've probably included the other ED and page number.  Legacy
recognizes these as two different sources.

The correct method would be to create a Master Source for Pennsylvania,
Allegheny, Pittsburgh - 1930 - US Census but add *no other information.*
Then go to the Source Clipboard, select the Master Source, and add the
details there.  You can either do this separately for each ED or, as Rich
suggested, you can put the details for both EDs together in one citation.
Either way, you'll have only one Master Source but with one or two different
sets of details associated with it.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Master Source LIst name - duplicates for US Census?

I discovered by accident that the "Master Source List" supports
duplicates.  Here is my example in my Master Source List:

(1) Pennsylvania, Allegheny, Pittsburgh - 1930 - US Census
(2) Pennsylvania, Allegheny, Pittsburgh - 1930 - US Census

                   NOTE: (1) above is for ED 272 Page 16A  and   (2)
above is for ED 749 page 12B

I believe that I have followed the example as pictured in CD "Ultimate
Guide to Sources" but it does not feel right to have duplicate entries
in the "Master Source List".

What do you do if you find duplicate names in your Master Source List?

Best Regards,
Bill
