Before we begin to introduce individual we must first save the source.
* First, we should add the census as a source so that it can be mentioned when we add all the records of individuals. To create this '''source''', click on the icon of '''sources''' in the list of icons on the left side of the window. Now right-click button to add. Fill in the dialog with the details of the source.
