You are correct that you should not source documents that you know only
from someone else's sources. However, do add a note to the citation for
that person or tree detailing that they have cited actual documents because
this speaks to the reliability of the information.

One way to include only the people you want to include is to tag them and
create a new file with just those individuals. You can include spouses and
parents of spouses, for example, but not children.

My last comment was not correct -- qualified dates are fine. However,
there is more to this than just the birth date being filled in to stop
christening sources from printing of just death date to stop burial sources
from printing.
