Re: [LegacyUG] Events descriptions
Georges, In the report I only see one event linked to their marriage: * Baudouin de Dudzeele et Marguerite van der Stove ont détenu des droits de propriété - à Montréal. The event "Notes relatives à leur mariage" appears to be an event you assigned to the wife. Did you mean to do that or should you have made that an event for the marriage? Brian Kelly On 08-Jan.-21 4:32 p.m., sarrazingeor...@gmail.com wrote: Thank you Brian It worked for most events. Georges Another small problem The format of the book reports is far from clear. It is not easy to differentiate between the events associated with the spouse, with his wife and those associated with the couple. So I identified each in the wording. For personal events, I have: Événements importants de la vie de «b»[Nom]«/b» : And for events associated with the marriage, I have: Événements importants reliés au mariage/union de «b»[CoupleNoms] : It works for the groom, but not for the bride or for marriage-related events (see example below).

Re: [LegacyUG] Cemetery questions
Scott, If people are buried and then moved, I would record the first interment (as usually noted on a death certificate, if any) as the Burial event. If the body is subsequently moved, I would note that in the note section with the place and date, if known. If the body were formally exhumed for some reason, I would make that a separate event with an explanation. This would apply to those you mention being removed from the town commons. In some cases it might depend on which burial has the most information. In the past people were reburied in cases of a second marriage, or person dying young in a different location from subsequent family burials. A cremated person can be buried in multiple locations!

Re: [LegacyUG] Cemetery questions
I have a baby brother who is buried somewhere in the cemetery where our plot is but, unfortunately, the parish registry doesn't have information on exactly where he was buried (the burial before him and after him have plot numbers but not him). We had his name engraved on our headstone so that he will not be forgotten.

I suppose the best way is to record this as a burial note. Your thoughts? I have many instances of relatives being recorded on headstones or monuments when they are buried elsewhere or their place of burial is unknown. The presence of a a gravestone recording a person's name and date doesn't necessarily mean that it marks the place of burial. I always enter a Memorial Inscription Event when I know of a gravestone or entry on a memorial. The Event Sentence is "«b»[EventName]«/b»: [Desc] [inPlace] bears the inscription [Notes].[Sources] I don't specifically record whether or not the Memorial is sited where the person is buried. The place of burial is entered as a Burial Event and if there was a relocation I would create an additional Event, probably entitled "Re-Burial." Lastly -- how do you record cemeteries? Do you use Event Addresses like I do, attaching them to the Burial field, do you use Events, or something else? I use the Place field for all Events and include Grave Numbers, house names or numbers etc. I do not use Event Addresses at all because I don't like the way they appear in Reports. -- Jenny M Benson - http://jennygenes.blogspot.co.uk/ Wrexham, UK -- LegacyUserGroup mailing list LegacyUserGroup@legacyusers.com To manage your subscription and unsubscribe http://legacyusers.com/mailman/listinfo/legacyusergroup_legacyusers.com Archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/
Re: [LegacyUG] Cemetery questions
In terms of recording cemeteries, marriages etc. I work on a basis of using the Location table to identify the Place ie. town or village, and to use the Address table to identify exactly where in the town it was, such as Cemetery Name, Address, Lat and Long, etc. Regarding the transfer of the body or headstone, I would put the initial one in the Burial fields. That then gives you with the choice of how you record the transfer, which could be a number of events or a list within the Burial notes. That is really down to your preferences.
