I don’t understand why you would do this instead of using the “+” at the right 
of the location field in the Individual Info screen and entering the address 
where it should go.

I agree, although I do not place it in its own field at the beginning. I.e.:

     Spokane – Fairmount Cemetery, Spokane, Washington, USA, rather than:

     Fairmount Cemetery, Spokane, Spokane, Washington, USA

 

This adds a new location, but it is sorted with the other locations in that 
city/township.

 

More specific info about the plot can go in notes, events, burial address or 
whatever. Info under the + signs does not show up in many reports. FindAGrave 
info only goes in source citations, as far as I’m concerned.

I put the Cemetery address in the Location field. In fact, all my locations are 
to the exact street address wherever possible.  Why worry about expanding the 
location address file?  I would expect any modern database and computer to cope 
with large files.

I prefer to enter the city where the burial occurs.  I put the cemetery in 
the burial address found in the + plus sign.  Also in the +, burial notes I 
put the plot, if available, the Find A Grave memorial number, and anything 
else pertinent.  I notice a number of people put the cemetery name where the 
burial occurs.  This just expands the location address file.
