Find My Past Hints

Post by Douglas » 06 Dec 2021 10:11

Hi,
I am sure this is a beginners question but here goes.
I have a subscription to Find My Past so am familiar with their 'hints' which if relevant I can attach to a relative. I also print off all relevant census, baptism, marriage and death records. On Family Historian I notice that 'hints' pop up for relatives as I fill my family history from FMP. It asks do I want to 'Reject' or 'Review', if I choose 'Review' I get the option to 'Reject' or 'Accept'. Now to the question. If I accept the 'hint' is it stored anywhere on Family Historian or do I just use the record to manually fill in fields for each individual. I have read that I can add a source document so can I copy let's say a census record and add it to an individual. Thanks for your help

Yes, you have to enter the data manually.

You can download a census image, but you wouldn't attach it to the Individual, you'd attach it to a Source Record and cite that source for one or more facts. If you're not familiar with sources and citations Sources and Citations in Version 7 (for New Users) may help.
