Can i link original document to existing text record in FamilySearch?
Ok bit of a confusing comment.
I found the original document online that is used to gather the information in a 1911 census, that FamilySearch displays.
To say it another way...
In other words, familysearch gives me the information in the document but not the document. Of course if you want the original you can click and it will take you to a different web site to purchase the document image. Well I have it. Can I link the image of the document to the familysearch description/data contained in the document so others can see it as well.
Or do I just add the image of document in sources and give it a description and let others hopefully notice if they want to.
Regards

You can use Source Linker to attach the record in FamilySearch to all the people named on the census record (at least all those you can identify). This allows a person to access the original record quickly provided they have a subscription to FindMyPast.
I am not sure whether uploading a copy of the image itself would be in breach of FindMyPast's intellectual property rights.

This does allow publication for personal use. To be on the safe side, you should contact FindMyPast.

Just dealt with a different but similar case involving a different website where permission was given to upload the downloaded document to FamilySearch. Please note that, if permission is given, you might find that FamilySearch will initially block the upload due to copyright issues. If that happens you will be advised by email and you can appeal the restriction stating that you have permission. The upload should then be unblocked.
