Thanks, Jenny & Paula. It seems there are different ways to display
information based on a report's use and the intended audience, as Cathy
touched upon. If you're generating something for family members that
you want to be in more of a narrative format, I'm guessing you might
want to write it up in the notes and override the events and maybe even
some sources while keeping others which display as endnotes or
footnotes. I need to read up on how to do the overrides and also
practice generating reports to see what's possible.

I would add all the extra information in the Event Notes, so the
Sentence might read something like "James Langston had land on the south
side of Tar River in Granville County, North Carolina. He purchased
this 5 acres of land from John Doe for $5 on 01 September 1810 and is
believed to have grazed cattle there."
