Thanks, Miles. I will enter the basic data in NFS today and then redo the sources, etc. in Family Tree as I get a chance. I am holding off working with Family Tree very much because it is so problematic and I am hoping more of the bugs will be worked out soon. Also, I guess I have just resisted learning a whole new software when I feel competent in NFS. I am getting old (78) and don't have time for this (but I guess I will have to make time).

The Sources for FamilySearch are a separate part which allows you to link documents from the Record Search and other websites directly to your person, similar to the way Ancestry links records to people with the shaky leaves. The Reasons are attached to individual data that you change. For example, if you change someone's birth date it will ask for the reason that you made that change and why you believe it is correct.
