Re: [LegacyUG] Burial plot number
I have tried putting it in the Notes of the Location field, but personally I like to see at a glance that I have the Plot #, so personally I record it like this: Name of Cemetery, Section, Plot #, City, County, State, USA.

RE: [LegacyUG] Burial plot number
I am still on the fence about this: currently I use Burial Notes. But I'm starting to consider putting them under a Cemetery Event because I usually run a lot of family group sheets and all notes are tacked on at the end. However, for a report like the Descendant Narrative, they are printed after the vital stats. I guess as everyone has suggested before, it's best to try it a few different ways and print your reports to see what works best for you.

Re: [LegacyUG] Burial plot number
I agree, I also put the details in the Location Field. After all it does locate the grave. I suppose one could say that it is equivalent to a house number, and, where applicable, I do put the full location in an Event Location Field.

That's one of the many questions which will provoke many different answers and you take your pick which one you want to adopt yourself. Personally, I put it in the Location field, along with the rest of the address off the Cemetery - "Grave 112, Section 6, Flaybrick Hill Cemetery, Birkenhead, Cheshire, England" for example.

Re: [LegacyUG] Burial plot number
I enter the date and governmental jurisdictions in the Buried fields. Then I create a Cemetery Event for the name and location of the Cemetery. I enter the plot information in the Cemetery Event notes.
