From Ron:
Thus a birth would have Master Source as "GRO" and detail as "birth
certificate" ...I do not intend, however, to publish the attachments and
they are there only
for my convenience should I wish to check something.
If I am reading your message correctly, I would like to suggest a
modification of your method. One of the major purposes of citing sources is
so that our work can be replicated by someone else. From your description,
it does not appear that you are publishing any details of the source. (The
information as listed in the index would be one way to do this)
For a GRO example:
Ancestry shows: YORK, Thomas , Record Type: Deaths , Quarter: December ,
Year: 1852 , District: Daventry , County: Northamptonshire , Volume: 3b ,
Page: 66
Legacy detail: 1852 Deaths #202, Daventry District, NTH ENG, Vol. 3b, p.66
For a census example (from a record on Ancestry): Thomas York, 1851, [Civil
parish] Long Buckby, [County] Northamptonshire, [Country] England
Source information: HO107/1741
Registration district: Daventry
Sub-registration district: Weedon
ED: 5a, Folio: 626, Page: 33
[Household schedule number] #154
GSU Number: 87696
In Legacy:
Title: 1851 ENG Thomas York, p.633 house #154, Long Buckby NTH.
(Mills would probably say this is not enough)
For a U.S. Census: John H. York, [Indexed as John N.York], Year: 1910;
Census Place: 8-Wd Detroit, Wayne, Michigan; Series: T624; Roll: 683; Page:
278B; Enumeration District: 112; Part: 1; Line: 17.is the way Ancestry shows
it.
In Legacy:
Title: 1910 U.S. John H. York, 423 12th St., Detroit, Wayne Co. MI, ED 112,
p.278B, L51, dw248, fam306 (indexed as John N. York)
While my versions aren't as lengthy as Ancestry's, they are sufficient to
allow me to go quickly back to the record in the few instances that I need
to.
