Why are marriage sources kept separate from birth, death and burial sources? Why not combine them together and allow us to tag a source in "sources" to marriages???

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    Just in passing ...

    You are not alone ...

    What you raise is NOT "New" ...

    We have been asking/requesting/begging, for such, for MANY; Many, many, Years ...

    In, this Forum; and, the various previous 'iterations', of the 'FamilySearch' "Feedback" Forums ...

    Just my thoughts.

    We can but live in hope ...

    Possibly misunderstanding your problem, but I keep all of my sources in the same place - the Sources section.

    Maybe I don't utilise Family Tree as I should: I don't worry too much about tagging and don't (usually) add sources to the Couple Relationship section.

    I also like to keep all my sources in the same place. Now to put in Marriage sources under the Mariage record they do not go in with the birth and death sources. Please help us save time in researching Sources

    I wish it was clear SOMEWHERE where sources are intended to go. I am beginning to understand that relationship sources do not go on an individual's source page. Adding them to the "sources page" is redundant. It seems they belong only in the relationship event area. But it would be nice, if that is the intent/expectation, it was made clear to users.
