Loose Ends, part 1

I have piles of papers with which I need to do Something.   

That means checking to see if I have the information and any images of the papers posted online in the right places, and in my genealogy file, and in a show-file of records that I definitely want to keep forever (or at least a very long time).

The papers are sorted by country, then by surname, then individual.  I have spent several hours already on One Sheet of Paper.  Whew!  

         Here is the first one:

John Jones-Richards is my 4th great grandfather.  He was born 1790 in Llanbadarn, Cardiganshire, Wales, died November 23, 1852.  There are two copies of the same information.    

The first is a photocopy, from microfilm, that I had made in 1993.  I was smart enough at the time to label the reverse of (almost) any copies with the source information.
