Virginia and Constance, I use Cemetery "people" quite a lot. I have recently been cleaning them up and improving on their pseudo "parents". I have a "mother" who is a location person with "children" of all pseudo people within that area. I also have a "father" with "children" of only interment sites in an area. And these parents in turn have parents for grouping. All of these types of "people" also have custom Name Styles to aid in data entry and to prepend special characters for grouping in indexes. For example: Cemetery -------- Prefix: Reber Hill Cemetery Given: Walnut Township PreSurname: Pickaway County Surname: Ohio Suffix: USA and it lists in the Name index under the location "surname" #Loc: USA. Ohio. Pickaway County. Walnut Township Father ------ Given: USA, Ohio Surname: Interments "he" lists in the Name index under the source "surname" $rc: Interments Mother ------ PreSurname: Pickaway County Surname: Ohio Suffix: USA and "she" lists in the Name index under the location "surname" #Loc: USA. Ohio On the Cemetery person's page the "parents" are listed with links. This "father's" page lists all cemetery "children" in Ohio. The "mother's" page lists both her cemetery and census "children". For complete details see the section in my book about Cemetery People: http://www.mjh-nm.net/STYLE.HTML#CemeteryPerson It is a bit complex to set up, but sure makes it easy to navigate and find what I want. The Cemetery person page produces a list of people in my data set interred there with all pertinent data, as well as tags describing the cemetery's history, exact location, driving instructions, alternate names (for the Name index), etc. See also the custom Cemetery role used to link these Cemetery people as witnesses to the burial tags. http://www.mjh-nm.net/TAGCUSTM.HTML#CemeteryRole Hope this gives you ideas, Michael
