Why not create a new detail that includes each of the children's headstones?

I am copying and pasting the footnotes for these sources
Lewis Memorial United Methodist Church Cemetery (Columbia, Georgia; NW
corner of Columbia Road and Lewiston Road), Jeanine Lewis marker,
personally read, 25 Sep 2008.
Lewis Memorial United Methodist Church Cemetery (Columbia, Georgia; NW
corner of Columbia Road and Lewiston Road), George Luther Lewis marker,
personally read, 25 Sep 2008.
Lewis Memorial United Methodist Church Cemetery (Columbia, Georgia; NW
corner of Columbia Road and Lewiston Road), Bettie Jean Lewis marker,
personally read, 25 Sep 2008.
Lewis Memorial United Methodist Church Cemetery (Columbia, Georgia; NW
corner of Columbia Road and Lewiston Road), Myrtis & Myrtle Lewis marker,
personally read, 25 Sep 2008.
These five children (the last entry is for a set of twins that appear on a
single marker), all have the notation on their markers... daughter of (or
son of) Willie O. & Dora S. Lewis
I want to put these 4 citations as sources for the AKA Willie O. Lewis and
the AKA Dora S. Lewis (their full names are recorded in the name blank.
These are AKAs for them).
When I assign the first source to the AKA it takes it just fine. When I
copy the next citation and try to assign it to the same AKA it won't take
it. It is just like when you try to assign the same source to fact in
your your file twice. It won't let you do it twice. It is like Legacy is
looking at these sources as identical even though they have different
details.

Here is the situation...
I have 5 children graves that have this information on their markers...

Each child has a different source (same source, different detail) for all
of
their facts surrounding these markers (name, date of birth, date of
death).
I am sourcing the AKAs for the mother and father. When I assign the
first
child's source to the mother and father's AKA all is good. When I try to
add another child's source to the AKAs it won't take it. Legacy thinks
it
is the same source even though the DETAIL is different.
The SOURCE is the cemetery that I went out and surveyed this morning.
The
DETAIL is the individual child's name on the marker.
Legacy is just seeing the source and not the detail and won't assign the
different sources to the one fact (the mother and father's AKA)
Please could you detail exactly the steps you are taking to assign these
sources as I have I am unable to replicate this problem: I have many
instances of people having the same Master Source twice, with different
Details, for the same Event/Fact.
