hi Diane, thanks for your reply.  By adding the book as a source in the name field, I assume that's what I would be doing (using the book as a source for those relationships).

You could also use the book as a source for child/parent relationships.

Subject: [LegacyUG] sourcing question

 
As a little diversion to all the questions about Legacy 9, I found a biographical sketch of my ancestor’s brother in a Texas history book published in 1893.  It contains a trove of information about my ancestor’s family and that of his parents, presumably from the subject who was 44 years old at the time.  The names of his siblings and aunts and uncles and all their spouses are included.  As a source for these names, I’m wondering where to best enter them; I usually put census entries into the birth field, since date and place of birth are always identified (usually).  Since date and place are not included in the sketch, should the source be added to the person’s name?  I usually don’t input sources into the name field but this seems to make the best sense.  Any thought would be appreciated.
 
Thanks,
 
Barton
