Source Linker to add Census, other, information

RobinsonSonyaJohnson

Have it possible for Source Linker to let us add Census information to each family member at once, instead of having to manually add the information on each family member's page.

When there are mother, father, and 10 children, it is very time consuming to go to each page to manually type the information in.

Also, it is no longer giving the opportunity to add the burial place from Find a Grave--it also has to be entered manually.

There is a known bug that is requiring us to fill in information manually (on the person pages), at present. Hopefully, it will soon be fixed.

Generally, I find I am able to move items across with a click of the mouse. Even the reason statement entered for the first person (e.g. "Have previously established this was place of residence for this family at this period of time") gets moved on to the next person to whom the (census) source is being attached.

Once the current problem is sorted by the engineers, come back to update with any outstanding issues (that still might be leading to you having to make manual inputs.

Regarding the censuses, even when everything is working as it should, not all censuses will allow attachment to all members of the household in one pass. That's because the original record has no information about relationships. The family/household is not connected in the census
