Citing family accounts?[edit]

Do we have a way of citing information sourced by family members/descendants? Bliss' grandson has provided me with some good information, and in doing so, cited a few newspaper articles, but some of the info is unsourced. — dscossontalk  13:32, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

I'd just put it in a normal ref tag with some explanation, e.g. <ref>As per information provided by John Doe, subject's grandson.</ref>. — admin • talk  14:08, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
