In my last post I mention of how I was keeping person notes and research notes in Family Tree Maker 2019 I though I would share an example from great-grandfather Jules Dagenais. In the person notes I have created a timeline of Jules life, with transcription of the records I have found in bold to stand out. In the research notes I have note that all facts have noted and linked to that person. Also have a research log show what has been done so far. In the research notes some stuff is in bold that need to look into or it is something I learned form someone else in the family's research and need to look into more.
So hopefully the example of how I keep my person notes and research notes in Family Tree Maker 2019 will be helpful to others on how to keep your notes.
