[LegacyUG] Census Source Citation Question

2009-06-25 Thread Cathy Vallevieni
If I understand it correctly when citing a Census, the citation includes the name of the person (ID of Person in Legacy) and that means each family member's name would be listed separately for the source assigned to them. Since each different citation shows up as a separate source in the
