* Entering marriage details

[wigansaint]

I am working through the tutorials for adding marriage details but am confused when it comes to entering "further information" in part 4 of the tutorial. In the tutorial it says to enter Ref ID as 23 from the transcript. I can find no mention of the number 23 in the transcript given in part 1 of the tutorial.

I can see the Source ID is 13 in the tutorial (11 in my worked example) and assume this is the 13th source added to the family.

Can someone clarify please.

If you check the Marriage Certificate Transcript given in step (1) Enter Marriage Information line 2 says:
"No.23 June 7th 1897"
This is the number 23 referred to in step (4) Enter Further Information.
It also appears in the first column of the Marriage Certificate Image in step (6) Add Multimedia Image.

Usually in post 1837 cases there would be a full GRO Marriage Index reference, but earlier Church Parish Records may use any reference.

The Source ID is the FH unique Source Record Id and increments for each new Source Record.
11 means this is the 11th Source Record as shown under Record Id in the FH Records Window ~ Sources tab.

It is similar to the Individual Record Id shown against each person in both AS and FH.

In fact all the FH record types (Individual, Family, Note, Source, Repository, Multimedia, Submitter & Submission) each have there own series of unique Record Id automatically allocated.
In database terms the Record Id is the unique key, and allows different records have the same name.
