Jennifer - I particularly liked the ancestor box charts on your website and found, when checking the website "source" information, that you used a program called TNG (The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilders). How easy is it to use TNG with Legacy?

If you use them and run reports you end up with repeated information as you say. The only difference being the cemetery name. I suppose it depends what your intended output is. I regularly update my website. I put the cemetery name and burial plot number in the + Burial Notes. You can see how this turns out here (scroll down to the Buried heading): http://www.colston-wenck.com/getperson.php?personID=I13&tree=cols tonwenck I know that some people put the Cemetery name in the Location in various ways, such as: Sometown (Pioneer Cemetery), Some State, Some Country. To my way of thinking, the current arrangement in Legacy is not a good one. Some other programs spit up an address to let you have a local field where you can put a cemetery, church, school, house number and street in this local field. That would work well I think if you could still sort without the local field if necessary. I did suggest this a couple of years ago, but nothing came of it.

And I do have several cases where the death location is different from the burial location. But I was talking about two different places to enter the BURIAL LOCATION...that is, you put the location in the individual's information screen, and then when you click on the plus sign and get to the screen where you can put the name of the cemetery, there are blanks there, again, to put the BURIAL LOCATION again--same information you just entered on the previous screen. I was asking if there was any reason to have to repeat the same information. I understand that you could enter the exact address of the cemetery on that screen. But, if on the individual's information screen you have put city, county, state, country, and that's all the information you have, is there a reason for putting the city, county, state, country AGAIN on the Burial Address screen? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michele Lewis Sent: Monday, November 19, 2007 8:59 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Burial Location Entry I think the reason is because a person can die in one place but be buried in another. It is pretty common actually. I too had to go through my file and remove the the name of the cemetery in that field after watching the videos (which I think should be mandatory viewing) michele ----- Original Message ----- From: "Barbara Ford" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com> Sent: Monday, November 19, 2007 8:22 PM Subject: [LegacyUG] Burial Location Entry >I understand from the training video that the individual's burial location > field should only contain the city, county, state, country of burial, and > not the name of the cemetery.
