How do I delete a memory death certificate? I do not have it in my gallery, so I don't want to lose it completely.

How do I unattach an incorrect source from a person? I will want to attach it to the right person.

If you right-click on the document/photo in the memory, you can make a copy and store it in your computer for use elsewhere

I have attached some Knowledge Articles to help you with your source problem. Click on the URLs or copy and paste them into your browser

Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

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

Just in passing ...

Maybe, I a missing something ...

Provided, that you are referring to a "Memory", associated with an individual/person; and, NOT a "Source" ...

[ And, even, if you DID NOT "Add" the "Memory" to 'FamilySearch', in the first place ... ]

Just thinking out aloud here ...

IF, you have the INCORRECT individual/person, to which the "Memory" is associated; and, can get to that "Memory"; THEN, firstly, why not, just "Tag" the CORRECT individual/person in the "Memory".

That way, the "Memory", IS associated, to the CORRECT individual/person, in their "Memories" 'Tab'.

And, then, secondly, simply "Delete", the ( INCORRECT ) "Tag", for the INCORRECT individual/person.

Doing that, would be much simpler, than anything else ...

Just my thoughts.

I hope, that this may help/assist, somewhat.

If you want to make a formal source out of an image, you can do that. It is fantastic. I have done that for the vital record certificates of my parents. I put the image in Memories, then I create the source using the "Add New Memory Source" option.

I put the image in Memories on the focal person's page. From there, I put the image in my Source Box, and from my Source Box I attach it as a source on the profile of every person mentioned.

Learn from my mistakes: when choosing the title, consider how it will appear in the source lists on those other profiles.

Users have the ability to bookmark a memory, uploaded by any user.

Bookmarked memories can be viewed in your Memories Gallery in a web browser. Bookmarked memories can be easily accessed; this can be especially helpful when many untagged persons are in a memory & I’m working to identify them.

Bookmark feature isn’t available in the mobile device apps.

An 2nd option available in both web & Memories App is the use of albums. Like bookmarks, users may create an album & add memories uploaded by other users.

Miss Jessie I never remember to do that...
