Tom, RE: your first question - that is nearly what I do. I have a Master Source for *all* Obituaries and I put the name of the newspaper in the Details (but I am a lumper!). There is nothing wrong with doing it the way you suggest.
I have often found names (rather than residences) from Obituaries and as you imply I use the Obituary Master Source as the source for the name. Similarly if you use the Residence Event for the addresses then the Obituary Master Source can be used as the source for this Event.

Would an appropriate Master Source title be: Obituary in ? When using the prior program I would often cite someone else's obituary as the source for a piece of information, such as the current residence of a child or other relative of the deceased. What would be an appropriate method of doing this when using Legacy?
