I've been to a few very large urban cemeteries in the past few years in which they've switched to GPS coordinates for grave locations. But not having at the time a GPS enabled phone or camera, I had to rely upon the old "go to the curve in the road, then it’s the 3rd grave to the left of the big

Jessica, If what you need is just linked names, you can probably parse a gedcom and extract it with little programming. If you want to carry more information and/or use Legacy's report facilities, it's probably simplest to do it by hand. Clear a tag and set up your daughter as focus. Ctrl T>s
