Free-form citations are a companion to citation templates. Watch that video as well 🤩kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y8WWgbyorcW5lqc.html👨‍🏫

Great video. Please keep the videos coming about Rootsmagic 8. I need to start using it again.

Please create a Rootsmagic 8 Playlist. So I can plug it in the messenger groups that I am anticipating in. Free form is cool. I like to keep it simple and consistent. Familysearch sources is good enough plus I can use the same citation from Familysearch for Wikitree. I prefer to save time. Q: How do I transfer my updated tree on ancestry to Familysearch? Then Wikitree from Familysearch?

Yes! Please discuss Ancestry sources to RootsMagic. Sources are so confusing!

When I come back from my summer break, I'll work on that.

Thank you for your video. I realize i have been creating more work for myself than needed. Please make a video showing you to clean up Ancestry citations. Also, I love Roots Magic yet it seems the site does not have videos that break down portions easily. Could you include research logs and folders, mapping and combining two different files so duplicates are not created. Thank you

I am looking on how to make a citation for Family History books. I am working on verifying the ones I have access to and I would like a source, especially for the kids who died with no records. The book I am currently working my way throught is Giffen Genealogic Family History of descendants of Robert Giffen and Mary Bane Giffen. I have a photocopy of the book and I believe there is a copy on Family Search or Google books.

There are source citation templates in RootsMagic for books that would fit nicely with what you're requesting. Find the one that fits what you have (unpublished, published, digital copy, etc.)
