Glen, 
I list locations with churches and cemeteries as the city first as follows:

Tallahassee in Roselawn Cemetery, Leon County, Florida, USA

The short form list is Roselawn Cem., Tallahassee, Leon Co., FL

In the Location List I chech the sort box, then under the Sort Location List
I go down to the "Direction of Sort" in the Lower left and select Right to
left
Now all the locations sort together with the City followed by any Cemetery
or other type

USA, Florida, Leon County, Tallahassee
USA, Florida, Leon County, Tallahassee in Roselawn Cemetery

If you know just the County it would sort as follows (Rural just being a
made up Cemetery):

USA, Florida, Leon County in Rural Cemetery
USA, Florida, Leon County, Tallahassee
USA, Florida, Leon County, Tallahassee in Roselawn Cemetery

The only drwback is typing in USA, Florida, Leon County in the find bar to
get all Leon County locations.  But that is a small inconvenience when
everything is there together.

Gail,

Thank you!  I see now what I was misunderstanding about how the sorting 
works.  What you wrote below is exactly what I was trying to do but, you 
are correct in that the result in reports looks kind of strange.  I'll 
probably end up formatting them as you do, with the dash or 
parentheses.  Good tips!  Thanks again.

Glen
