Well....this is interesting news, passed along from another list and following a long discussion on that list about the meaning and validity of "Primary" and "Secondary" sources. - Joyce Harris -----Original Message----- From: Halltall@aol.com [mailto:Halltall@aol.com] Sent: Saturday, June 11, 2005 10:41 AM To: GENMTD-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [GM] Primary vs. Secondary Just back from the NGS conference with this news: The terms "Primary and secondary" are no longer used. Now we say "Direct" and "Indirect." If readers are interested I can give a few more details. Evidence, proof, sources have been redefined and fine-tuned. I would say the RootsWeb dictionary of genealogical terms isn't the best source.... Jan Hall Halltall@aol.com
