Burial/Cremation Events from Entry

This screen appears when a Monumental Inscription source is saved and the appropriate option to create burial facts has been selected on the Options screen.

For each individual the top panel on the screen shows the name of the individual and the date and/or place of burial/cremation if known.

For date of burial/cremation if the date is not given then this can be based on an estimate if the date of death is recorded. If you decide to choose one of these options then it is always possible to qualify the date entered as being calculated, estimated or approximated if you wish. Alternatively you can opt to use the After or Before qualifiers.

You may opt to not create a burial/cremation event, or create one having selected an appropriate option for burial date and place. If the individual already has a burial/cremation event recorded you also have the option to replace the event with the chosen date and/or place.

You may choose not to change the existing burial/cremation event. However, there is a checkbox you can tick to link a citation to the source if you feel that the source provides additional evidence for the existing burial/cremation entry being correct. There is an option to have this always ticked by default on the Options screen for each source type.
