Where are you putting the details and address of this cemetery? What do you 
mean by: "everytime I get out of that particular person"? What says "the 
cemetery doesn't exist"?

 This cemetery is very large in downtown

"I have gone into the name and put in decendent" How and where are you doing 
this - what screen are you on?

Sorry, but without understanding your problem I am unable to help.
