Putting Documents in Family Tree[edit | edit source]
There are many instances where it is desireable to enter a document as a Source in an individual's Details page in Family Tree. This is particularly true when the document establishes/verifies the name, date and place of a person's vital event (i.e. birth register/certificate).
While documents found in the Family Search digital databases can be easily attached as a Source to a person, (see FS "Adding Sources in Family Search"), often they are found on other websites (free or subscription) or found in the possession of a family member or other individual. Records found in these other places ought to be added to Family Tree using a different series of steps which are presented with visuals in the handout "Attaching Documents as Sources in Family Tree" shown below.
