I'm glad I read about the different ways. I like the idea of using the obit as an event and hadn't thought of doing it before. Since events are sourced also, there will be a source in the Master Source list. I could enter that as a death source, leaving the detail brief and using the transcription in the event note field, not in the source. Thanks for the explanation. It was helpful.
