Leo, Your question is what to enter in the citation, right? Now what to enter as the Given Name of the individual in your database, right?
I've never run into that, but I like your [first name blank] Peter ... or maybe unnamed Peter or infant Peter? I liked the suggestion on using surname style conventions like /Peter/ or PETER, too. --Paula ________________________________ From: lio . <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, June 30, 2014 11:42 AM Subject: [LegacyUG] Sourcing a blank first name in SourceWriter? In sourcing a birth registration, the first name is blank (or rather has a line across the column " -------- '). When using SourceWriter, it asks for the "ID of the Person". Recording only the surname "Peter", could easily be misread as the person's first name. Would you instead use "[first name blank] Peter" (without the quotes)?
