I presume you mean Ancestral Sources, and if so, its preferred method is the one you propose to adopt.

I was surprised at the difference of opinions it raised. At the moment I am on a learning curve and the views expressed have helped me to further understand how the sources and citations work. I think I will opt for creating Sources for each of the sources I use: one Source Record for each census return, which would be a source for all the members of my family on it; one Baptism Source Record for each Certificate, which would be a source for the family address, mother’s maiden name etc However I know nothing out Ancestry Records and will have to look into that – it might make me change my way of thinking.
