RE: [LegacyUG] [Legacy User Group] Version 7 Family view-customize
Also in the US, but there may still be multiple events. My parents were each (separately) cremated in one place, then later each one's ashes were scattered in the sea, with the scattering including a family gathering and celebration of the life. Two entries, one for the actual cremation, one for the 2nd event. I also could have included events for donation of the body for medical student use to explain why the cremations & scatterings were so long after the deaths. It's up to each of us how many events to use (Thank you Legacy).

It seems to me that, unless you've got the ashes sitting on your bookshelf, they're going to be buried. Why is this a different event? It needn't be if you don't wish it so. Some people like to use Buried for the "traditional" burial of the intact body and Cremated where the body was first cremated and ashes buries or scattered. Some people like to use Cremated and have an addition Burial Event to record the interment of the ashes.

Elizabeth, In Australia it is common to scatter a person's ashes to the four winds so there is no grave or burial site as such.

John Gregson wrote: Using the "Customize Family View" screen, I would like to change BURIED to CREMATED I can not change this field; grayed out. You won't. It doesn't work that way! Basically, you set whether a person was buried or was cremated at the individual level. So, Bring up the Individuals Information window. Alongside the burial/cremation details, there's a button with a plus sign on it. That is the Burial Notes button. Right-click it. On the pop-up menu, click on the last item: Cremated. Close the Individuals Information window and get back to your Family View. Sorted! -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg.

Re: [LegacyUG] [Legacy User Group] Version 7 Family view-customize
On the Individual screen, click on the arrow at the end of the burial field. The bottom choice is Cremated. When you check this option, the wording changes to show Cremated, rather than Buried.

Re: [LegacyUG] [Legacy User Group] Version 7 Family view-customize
It automatically changes if you have someone that you have marked as cremated. On the individual screen click on the plus sign to the right of the burial field and that gives you an option to check cremated. The Family View should read correctly for that individual.
