I didn’t think about it too much, but what I chose was “Cemetery records > Abstracts: vertical file > Basic format”. The (source master) Repository is the historical society. (The only issue I have with the result is that the template doesn’t print the repository state, only the city.) So my citation becomes: "Highland Cemetery Grave Inventory" (vertical file, Mt. Pleasant Historical Society, Mount Pleasant), Willie J. Walker. The exact info from the book is captured in the source detail text, which I don’t print. Only the person’s name is printed from the detail, but you could add other things, like a page number.
Ward From: Paula Ryburn Sent: Tuesday, September 25, 2012 1:03 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [LegacyUG] Template for cemetery book? I have a book published by the local genealogical society that is a transcription of grave markers in a cemetery. In Evidence Explained, this document falls under section 5.21 on page 234; however, there is not a template in Legacy for "cemetery transcriptions" or section 5.21 or page 234. In EE, they say to cite as a publication, according to type--e.g., book, so I searched on book, but there are too many choices! I am leaning toward Books > Book, authored > Author known > Basic format, or ... > Authored by an agency > Basic format - but is a genealogical society an "agency" ? If you have experience with this sort of document, could you please share which template you have successfully used?
