Ted, That should be the preferred way of doing it. I have this for one of my master sources:
Using Source Writer template Cemetery records>Grave markers, plaques, tombstones, monumental inscriptions>Grave markers, urban or the rural Michigan, St. Joseph, Constantine - Constantine Township Cemetery Headstones Footnote/Endnote Citation: Constantine Township Cemetery (Constantine, Saint Joseph County, Michigan). Subsequent Citation: Constantine Township Cemetery (Constantine, Michigan). Bibliography: Constantine Township Cemetery (Constantine, Saint Joseph County, Michigan). Grave markers. I create a repository for the cemetery and use that as the repository of the source. If you have an image of the cemetery or map of the cemetery you can ad that image in the repository screen also. this is how the citation reads for an individual Ray H. Wing: Footnote/Endnote Citation: Constantine Township Cemetery (Constantine, Saint Joseph County, Michigan), Ray H. Wing marker; personally read, 5 Sep 2011; Phil. 1:21 Wing Kittie C. Ray H. 1893-1968 1892-1969 For me to live is christ and to die is gain. Subsequent Citation: Constantine Township Cemetery (Constantine, Michigan), Ray H. Wing marker. Bibliography: Constantine Township Cemetery (Constantine, Saint Joseph County, Michigan). Grave markers. FYI I put the transcription in the Text area with a blank line as the first line so that there is a carriage return after the semi colon otherwise the first line appears right after it. I would put any other special info like the condition of the grave marker in the Comment section. From: Poppke Genealogy Sent: Monday, March 10, 2014 8:05 PM To: legacyusergroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: [LegacyUG] Question - Cemetery or Tombstone as the source? Hello, I photograph during cemetery trips and use the images as a source without transcription. I'm planning on listing the cemetery as the source, and record tombstone details as the various source details. Are there pros and cons to doing it this way? Would like some comments before I start.
