It seems to me that separate Events for each census is a bit of overkill. I use just one Event named Census and then the census date is placed in the date field and the census description becomes the source.

Other programs (PAF5 and TMG5) allow you to "copy" an event definition then make any necessary changes. It seems that in Legacy you must create a "blank" event and then copy and paste each sentence line (8 in all). This is rather time consuming if I want to create 7 census events for UK and an additional 15 or more of the US. I can't believe there isn't a quicker way. But perhaps there isn't....
