How do I get the state census year (ex: 1856) to show up on the All Censuses List? I have added the new source and used it. jane

That's an oversight we'll have to correct in the next version. My programmer is on vacation and incommunicado, so the next version will be a while. Liz Kerstens
First of all I have read the manual for Clooz 2 repeatedly and I guess I'm a bit dense because I'm not sure how to correctly enter information on the New Source screen for Documents to be entered. Specifically birth/marriage/death vital records that have been scanned on the New England Historical Genealogical Society (NEHGS) web site. Because these are not certificates offically issued, rather they are scanned copies of the records that were copied by the Towns (mostly hand written) and sent from to the Archieves in Boston, I have selected to record the data in "Document" instead of "Certificate". Any option on this decision? OK, now to my question. The following is an example of a New Source for a Document that I am not sure I'm recording correctly: Source Title: Death Record for Jeremiah Van Loan Agency: Great Barrington, MA Town Hall Item #: No. 53 (I used the number of the entry on the specific page of the document) File #: Vol.174 (I used the Volume # of the document) Collection: Pg. 39 (I used the Page # of the document) File or Collection Name: Deaths Registered in Great Barrington, MA for 1865 Respository: I entered Boston Archives, since these documents are only hand copied from the original ledgers that are retained in Great Barrington (or other towns). Digital File: The scan at the NEHGS web site is great but doesn't save very clear, sometimes blurred so much you can't read it, so I didn't save it digially, just a hard copy, so I left this blank. Does anyone have any option on my method? Since I have about 200 documents to enter (most of my family lines come from Massachusets), I want to make sure I am entering them correctly before I get started. By the way, if anyone has family from MA, the NEHGS is a gold mine for vital records from 1851 - 1910. As a member ($75 a year) you also have access to Heritage Quest for census records and more. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Joan Swaney ________________________________________________________________________ Check out AOL.com today.
