Well, my advice is do it however *you* feel most comfortable with,
but try to stick to that.
I have a funeral event, but I may have added that myself. I can't
remember for sure.
Here is what I would enter:
Description: "at Jones Smith Funeral Home
Date: 2008-Dec-12
Place: Miami, Dade County, Florida
My resulting sentence is:
His funeral was held at the Jones Funeral Home on 12 Dec 2008 in
Miami, Miami-Dade County, Florida, USA.
I don't mind that, but I sure wish I could remember if I added the
event or not.
I have an event for Obit which allows me to enter obit info, and
another for cemetery which allow me to enter cemtery information
(particularly how to find that grave again).
Thanks.

I am still very much a newbie with Legacy. I have over 9,000 names
to enter from my FTM family file. I have been experimenting with
about 50 names from my own family file. Before I get too far, I
would like to make sure that I am handling some basic information in
a way that I will not regret later on.
Specifically, I'd like to know how others enter information such as
funeral information, funeral homes, memorial service and/or
visitation, etc. Would these be considered events in Legacy? If
so, none are in the event list and so would I create a custom event?
Thanks,
Vicki
