My question refers to deleting a master source. Several years ago we began using Legacy 7 and transferred the family file from the Family Tree Maker genealogy program. This family file had been developed over many years and had in excess of 15,000 individuals. After the transfer we found that there are about 1,000 individuals who have a Master Source of "newspaper" with text that reads identically on each one and was correct for only one of the individuals. It appears that everyone who had "newspaper" in the FTM program was combined into one "newspaper" master source in the master source list and connected to all these 1,000 individuals when it was only correct for one of them and possible overwrote information on the source for the other 999 individuals. I am aware of how to delete a master source but am wondering if this is the only thing to do or if there is any way to recover the source information that was possibly overwritten? Thank you for any suggestions or information you may make that will help.
