Syble, Regarding information received from relatives that I enter into Legacy and want to cite the source: I have wrestled with this, because many people here on the LUG will say use an email source template or something like that. Although I haven't gone through and "standardized" my source citations, I have master sources for each person, and then in the detail citation I put the medium; for example, "interview Jan 4 2011" or "email Feb 14 2010" or "letter Mar 30 2007" etc. Hope this addresses your question. --Paula in Texas Researching: Adair Baker Beasley Benson Betz Bigley Blagrave Burton Chapman Clement Clough Coppernoll Costine Daulton Dinwiddie Doody Ellis Exline Field Floran Floyd Gates Goodale Gordon Gump Hale Harbaugh Hind Hopkins Hughes Hurdle Jones Klein Koyle Laswell McDonald Misner Passwaters Pelton Roberts Roche Ryburn Sanford Short Singer Sullivan Weller Williams

I receive e-mails from other family researchers asking various questions, sometimes sending me information that I'd like to document and if I find additional information be able to readily get back in touch with that researcher. Sometimes I have a related person in my database and sometimes not. I'm sure I'm not the only one that would like to document this is Legacy, any ideas would be appreciated. As with a recent e-mail, I said I'd get back to her if I find additional information, I have family folders in my e-mail program, but having it in Legacy would be much more practical.
