Dear Holly, Jan and Lisa, I guess I'm being dense. If I have evidence of a birth or death (birth/death certificate), christening or burial (church record) is that event recorded using the + (plus sign) to the far right of the fields for date and place? I was putting all that stuff down in the events list below. Please advise.
I'm really looking forward to getting my Legacy Deluxe v. 4 manual. I hope it clears up things like this.
