I don't enter the city, county, etc. in the Event Addresses. That way you don't get the redundant addresses. You can still enter the coordinates, for mapping purposes. I usually look up the street address of the cemetery so I have the exact coordinates rather than just the city's.
I have no problem printing the Event Notes - just have the appropriate box checked in Report Options.

If, however, you use "book" reports, you'll find that when the cemetery (eg) is printed in parens, it will include the entire address... which is redundant. Further, although I haven't tested it recently, it seems I remember the Event Address Notes don't print anywhere. (For that matter, I don't know if the Location Notes do either.) --Paula in Texas --- On Wed, 6/24/09, Cathy <chorn0...@verizon.net> wrote: > > I've a question to all who place the cemetery name into the > Location field: why don't you use the Burial Address > section? > > I use the Burial Address section and when I want to see who > I have buried in a specific cemetery, I can go into Burial > Address -> Address List.
