The important thing is that the citation output looks OK on reports. And that your internal name in the master source list is one that you will easily find again.
In my case, the grave marker transcriptions were in a binder in the office of the historical society. Mt. Pleasant, Ohio. I bet there is a Mt. Pleasant in just about every state.

Wow, I think I would rather customize one of the Book templates, than use one for vertical files at a cemetery. But thanks. Hey, is this Mt. Pleasant, Texas? Used to live there is why I'm asking.

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?
