Source doesn't show on Marriage Record (originally answered by Betsylee Browning

Betty L Heath

I actually have 2 questions:

1. I added the source to a marriage record for Georg Rostomily GH7L-YWX and Anna Klemssin GCNL-XB9. I thought it was added to the Source Box, but it doesn't show up on the sources in the details for him or his wife. Could someone check it and tell me what I did wrong?

Here is a link to the parish record: https://tinyurl.com/2ehtdkvk

Translation: Marriage Record. 28 April 1788 from GrossRasel, (now Rajek) Czechia, of Georg ROSTOMILY, Gartler, (house #7) age 25 and Anna Klemssin, widow, age 35, both Catholic. Witnesses: ______, and Johann Rostomily.

2. Also, that was Anna's second marriage. I have found her first marriage, and her maiden name is Fritsčher. Can I keep her same ID on Family Search and change her surname?

Here is the link to the parish record for her first marriage: https://tinyurl.com/55jprmm5

Marriage record of Bartholomew Klemisch and Anna Fritsčhar in Rajek, Czechia. Translation: 16 Nov 1772 Coop. (Priest) Groom: Young man Gallus (Havel) legitimate son of the deceased Bartholomew Klemsche and Bride: Young woman Anna legitimate daughter of the deceased Joannes Fritsčher. Nikahla. Witnesses: Franciscus Novotny, Faber (blacksmith) and Bartholomew Kline, Zvole? 

Thank you for your help.

Concerning her surname, on FamilySearch we use the maiden name. If you entered her under another name, go on her Person page and you can change the name, or just add her maiden name before the other one.

It's great how far you have got.

Thank you, Anne. I will change her surname to her maiden name. I appreciate your response to my second question.

I will continue to add sources and hopefully they will show up. It’s really important to cite the sources we use.
