Most genealogical websites use the same endnote number when the citation is exactly the same. They really have to because of the space considerations. That also makes it much easier to copy the source and citation into Legacy. If you want to follow hardcopy publication rules, perhaps print as

Hi mbstx, Re: short forms: I can't seem to enable any source printing for the Descendant Report. Did you mean the Descendant Book report? This is one of the known bugs around Subsequent Citations -- they work in certain reports when you use footnotes, but they do not work when you use endnotes.

Hello everyone. I would appreciate some advice. I am entering a cemetery into Legacy for whom several of my ancestors are in. Over the years, the name of the cemetery has often changed. Where would you suggest I make a note of these name changes? I don't think it would be a good idea to select
