Sourcing is interesting. If you are ever wound up, try reading:


Evidence explained : citing history sources from artifacts to cyberspace / 
Elizabeth Shown Mills

You will be comatose shortly! Our library has it, don't buy it. Legacy covers 
sourcing pretty well. I am going back and fixing my dodgy sources/filling in 
the blanks. Cathy and others have stated it well before. If you gave your 
source to someone, could they find the source without much problem. If so, you 
are doing it right. 

Good Luck, and don't stress too much about it.

Gene

What a brilliant idea, Cathy!  I do have quite a few printouts of 
frequently-used citations but I'm so often having to break off half-way through 
a citation to go and look up someone else to see how I usually use that Source.

I shall set up my dummy person to-day!  Thank you!
