I have a feeling my cemeteries and churches should be in the event addresses instead of the location field, but I can't see how then I could easily see all churches/cemeteries/etc I have entered for a given location (county or township). Is there a way to do that?
Thanks, Lisa
My way of doing this may be unorthodox, but works very well for me.
My home town as an unqualified location is entered in the location list as
Naples, Ontario, NY, USA
with the short name entered as
Naples, NY.
A cemetery within Naples is entered as:
Naples (Rose Ridge Cemetery), Ontario, NY, USA
with the short name entered as
Rose Ridge Cemetery, Naples, NY.
I do the same with street addresses:
Naples (Thrall Street), Ontario, NY, USA
with the short name entered as
Thrall Street, Naples, NY.
Doing this sorts all entries for Naples together no matter what fields you are sorting on.
It has also proven invaluable for knowing which streets to research further on Scottish census records.
Try it with a few records ... I think you'll like it. And Legacy's edit capabilies on the Location list make it easy to change back if you don't.
