Cathy-O's idea is very useful because events have a lot of
flexibility...you can name, sort, source them, etc. and they tend to
appear in "better" places in reports than the regular notes do. (See
recent discussions on using your own events for birth, baptism, and
death in order to get those notes in a more logical place.)

For Julia....such events are just a more detailed way to do what could
have been done in General Notes. Your choice.

You can go a bit further than just "Misc. Notes". You could do an
event called "Willis Family History" that you can source and can
easily copy to any members of the family that you like (using the
clipboard of course).

But be aware that it is difficult or impossible to transfer Legacy
events to some other programs.  They often don't like the 'notes' part
of the event.

FYI--I think the OP meant 'In Search Of'  by ISO.
