Sherry, Being a non American - I just put the name of the Cemetery, Town/City, County, Country, in the location place for all my English burials. Then if I should know the exact location of the grave I add the details under the Burial Notes (Lot number, grave number etc.). It all comes out nicely when I create a Report.
Most of the time I usually only know the Town/City, County, Country. e.g. I may just put Chilham Church Yard, Chilham, Kent. UK (or Eng, or Great Britain), with the burial date.
