I now know the reasoning for doing things your way. It will work just fine
and Thank You. And no, I don't think you can oversource. I had a marriage
date from one branches family Bible. Then a second date from another
branches family Bible. I finally found the third and probably correct
marriage date in the church records. That all must be extra well documented
to keep the various branches from feuding!
Thanks again for your expert help. I'm sure I'll need it again
