Subject: TMG-L: Recording sources/citations for relationships
Date: Tue, 21 Sep 1999 16:19:26 -0500


I would appreciate some suggestions from our more experienced users on
the best way to record the citation and source for a relationship.

For example, if a father-son relationship is proven by a deed or will,
where is the best place to place the Citation? I have tried putting it
in the Parent/Child relationship tag which seems like the proper place,
but when I generate a Journal Narrative Descendancy Report with the
Record Format (NGSQ) the source does not show up as a footnote. I
haven't tried other report formats yet, so it could be something unique
with the NGSQ format.

Another option would be to put the citation in the Birth tag for the
son, but how do I specify that the citation is for the relationship, not
the date, or place?

How are others handling this? I would appreciate any guidance.
