This is for my own personal research :) I am still working on going through a massive probate record of my great great great great great grandfather that I received over the summer. I am puzzled by how long it took for a formal inventory/appraisal to be filed with the court. My ancestor, Joseph Guillaume died in March 1878 in Christian County Illinois, the appraisal of his property according to the date on the documents was done in April 1878 but the appraisal was not filed until March 1879. This seems strange to me.There were allegations years later that the estate had not been handled properly but this issue is not addressed by those later documents. The only possible explanation I could think of was the problems between his wife Catherine and the executor August Cazalet caused the delay- she had refused to turn over some interest bearing notes to him and was issued a citation by the court in September 1878. There are no papers indicating a reason for the delay or that are dated between that citation and the filling of the appraisal. I've never come across an instance in which it took the executor just shy of a year to file the appraisal. Any ideas? Thanks! Kassie

I would disagree for many reasons. If the cheque was meant for services it should go through your business account and your books. It is not just income you want to track for tax purposes but expenses as well. Books don't have to be elaborate but you should be keeping some kind of accounting system separate from your personal issues. It sounds like you already have a way of paying yourself a salary after taxes and expenses are considered. Being consistent makes sense.

I agree. The IRS doesn't care where it came from, just that they get their share. Sincerely, Melanie D.

The final answer should come from your accountant. But the source of your business doesn't have anything to do with where you deposit your money. If you get paid for doing your job, in this case research for a client, then it is business income.

Patricia, The Maryland State Archives has a "Guide to Maryland Religious Institutions" church records at http://speccol.mdarchives.state.md.us/msa/speccol/catalog/religion/cfm/index .cfm and the FamilySearch wiki discusses them at https://www.familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/Maryland_Church_Records. I would also check the FHL microfilm catalog. To my knowledge there are not any digitized collections of Anne Arundel church records. As Michael says some have been transcribed and published in books. I know our genealogical society in Carroll County Maryland has several books with records from local churches. You might check with the Anne Arundel Historical Society or the Anne Arundel Genealogical Society. The Maryland State Archives in Annapolis houses many church records.

Amy, There shouldn't be any differences from a tax standpoint. As far as the IRS is concerned, income is income. The only difference would be if you're using an accrual accounting system, which most service businesses don't.
