I do not save any images in PDF format mine are always the same as a photo image which I download from ancestry which allows me is save it on my computer. But this is UK ancestry I understand that USA and Canada ancestry has changed and they are no longer able to save images to computer. I imagine it will be the same in UK soon. As to sources I don't give ancestry as the source nor would I give FMP as the source if it came from there after all neither are the original source -----Original Message----- From: "Jeremy via" <family-historian-users@rootsweb.com> Sent: 01/01/2016 12:53 To: "family-historian-users@rootsweb.com" <family-historian-users@rootsweb.com> Subject: [FHU] References I used to show, say, 'Find my Past - Parish Records' as the source for entries. Now I am finding that I can get the actual detail of the marriage as a .pdf which I could attach to the citation. However, I would need each citation to be a separate entry in order to attach an image to it. My question is that would mean about 3000 individual entries in my case. Is this normal/average? or excessive?

It is possible download images from ancestry,com (the US site). I've just checked it. An Ancestry login works multiple Ancestry sites, at least UK, USA and Canada that I've used.

From a personal viewpoint, if it happens at some point in the future that I will not be able to download images from Ancestry I would seriously think about not renewing my subscription. I download all source images and if there is no image availabe for an event (e.g. there is a transcription only on the website) I take a print/snapshot of the information and attach that to my Family Historian tree and make a note on the individual's record/fact that the information is from a transcription by Ancestry, a local Family History society, Family Search or whoever performed the transcription. If I didn't download the images and just saved a link to the relevant image/page on Ancestry (or other relevant website) I would be very concerned that if the website ever underwent a reconstruction which resulted in a link no longer being valid, or could no longer afford an Ancesty subscription, I would no longer have proof of where I obtained the data/"fact" for an individual.

There have been occasions when I couldn't download the image so I used print screen and edited cutting out irrelevant details using my photo edit software but I much prefer to download the image as they are clearer -----Original Message----- From: "Ward Family Tree via" <family-historian-users@rootsweb.com> Sent: 01/01/2016 15:49 To: "Ian Thirlwell" <fh.thirlwell@ntlworld.com>; "family-historian-users@rootsweb.com" <family-historian-users@rootsweb.com> Subject: Re: [FHU] References From a personal viewpoint, if it happens at some point in the future that I will not be able to download images from Ancestry I would seriously think about not renewing my subscription.
