I haven't used Basic Sources for so long I can't really remember how I used to do them, but I can answer the last part of your question. What I put in the Master Source is little more than the Country and Year of the Census, the Dept Code (in your example this would be RG13) and the website where I accessed it. In the Citation Details I enter the Parish & County, the the Piece No, Folio No and Page No and the name of the Head of Household or the Individual concerned. Hope that helps somewhat, at least. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
