I have found a lot of sources in the form of compilations in local history books or historical society journals and in abstracts that are published in books. Are these acceptable? For example--one is a will. The original is barely legible and I transcribed it for my own use. There is a book of will abstracts from Orange County New York that lists the people named in the will and their relationship to the deceased. Would a photocopy of this page and the book title page be sufficient? Likewise, many old church records have been compiled in book form. Can I use these? Thanks.
