I only include them in the notes if I suspect or know them to be someone famous or relevant to the family in general - for example, a family may have lived in one town for 50 years and every single baptism, marriage and burial in that time was conducted by the same priest, alternatively - a dr who did the pm or certified the death may have made a big discovery and now be a well known name. They are the human interest points that make the stories just that bit more interesting.
