Hi Steve, It seems to me that which way to source is an on going question and is very much a matter of personal chaoice and where the main output from the research is to be used. If, for example, I was to have an individual master source for all people who corresponded with me via letters

Hi All, I agree with those who say that sourcing can be individualized so long as the information is provided however, some may want to publish in future and the format of citation is much more precise, uniform and formal, and to be honest, I have yet to find a way to state my sources on Legacy

I think Mills' new book is as close as we're going to come to a certain standard for genealogical source citation. I'm sure many of us, myself included, will be out to buy it as soon as word is out. In the mean time, if Legacy would just build in more flexibility with the order of source

In the mean time, if Legacy would just build in more flexibility with the order of source citation components... Amen! They could start with making the sarcastically-named Assistant (Edit Master Source DefinitionAssistant) edit publication facts instead of erasing everything. Jonathan Legacy

I've found that, since I downloaded the latest update to Legacy 6 Standard, my event addresses now all include USA instead of what I entered, which was United States Of America. No biggie, but I'm changing it back; I spell out everything, in the event that someone other than an American should

Your spreadsheet example works unless the person went by their middle name and that's the only name you have for them and you don't know whether you're dealing with a person's first or middle names. I guess, if you were sure that John in your example was really the first name, you could come up
