    Combine Sources?

    Over the years I have accumulated much data about many people and have created many sources for their events.
    Now I find I have separate Sources for Birth, Christening, Marriages, Census, Death & Gravestone that are all for the same person.
    Could I get your opinion on whether these Sources for the one person should be combined into one Source, including all the attachments?

    My opinion is, don't combine. A source is never really for a person, but for a fact: it says here's how we know that. The event in question very frequently involves more than one person. And what's wrong with having separate sources anyway?

      I agree with you Michael. After reconsideration, I agree they should be created by fact rather than by person. Thank you Michael.
