Legacy allows you the flexibility to enter information in different ways. It all depends on how you want the information displayed on your screen and in your reports. It depends on how you want to be able to sort and search for things. If there was only one way to do something then people would complain that they can’t do it a different way :)

Click on the plus sign to the right of the Location space. That brings up a list of 4 options, Burial Address, Burial Notes, Burial Pictures, Cremated. Click on the one(s) in which you want to enter your information.
