The "Select the Information or Events in this Source" would be greatly enhanced by addint a check box for Marriage and tagging the source to marriages for marriage records and censuses that indicate marriages

Name

Birth

Death

Sex

Christening

Burial

ADD - Marriage


This would be further assisted by adding the date and place for marriages, and the name of spouse, to the record automatically if possible

    Tagging beyond the "Vitals" section has been repeatedly requested. It has been a while (I've been involved in a major move) since I looked at what can and cannot be done with sources, but the way facts and events are displayed will need to be reworked.


    That last time I looked, facts and events were grouped together and so a single source (for instance, a census record) could not be tagged to just one residence entry (of course it was not taggable to any "other" or "family" entries) and the way you could tell was to look at the change history for an event (such as residence) and you would see all the residence events in that change history. That problem will need to be corrected before tagging can take place for individual facts and events outside the Vitals section.
