Thanks, Cheri, for your input. I think I'll not be putting in all of those
details unless something pops up that's really interesting about a
burial—and I can figure it out! I agree that just the important details
should be in. When I first started I felt I had to translate all of the
legal and church procedural stuff, but no more. The cousins who are going
to read that won't be interested, and it's all so repetitive. I'm going to
put in some explanatory notes in the book my cousin and I are working on
just to give people an idea of the kinds of things that were normally
covered in the records and just leave it at that. It's all been an
interesting journey! I am so happy to have made contact with you and this
group. It's so interesting to read what other people are doing and to know
that many of them are having the same struggles!
