I have returned to FH research after a gap of 2 years. When refreshing my memory on procedures etc and looking at previous entries, I noticed that I appeared to have links to multimedia images with the wrong family names on. This was most apparent with Census records in the sources listings and their associated links. I think the problem is where one has several related families on the same census page. Would it be better to name the image more generally i.e. just the census year and folio/page details and then make the title more specific, with the subjects names, to the link being set up. I'm not quite sure what info the progamme uses to create the link. I'd appreciate your advice, before I enter any more images of sources.

Naming of images for entry into multimedia
FH does not name the files, it simply imports the names you used.
Is it possible you used GedCom Census to enter the information, it has a variety of methods for renaming media files.
Personally I use the Folio page etc and don't put a family name on them.
