Emery,
You can add new witnesses to any tag. From any person view double click on
any tag that is not a birth, marriage or death. Or if you already have the
event type tag, add it and edit from there.
Once it is open click on Event type. Scroll down the list until you find the
event type you want to add the new witness to. Click on Edit.
At the bottom right hand corner is a list of roles. Click on ADD. Name
your new role. In this case:Beneficiary. Then say Okay. You can then write
a new sentence for that role. And say OKAY. Cancel to get back to the
person view. And then add the new tag, and your new role will be there.
It's that easy.
P. S. I use the role sentence [W] was the beneficiary of [R:Testator]'s will
<[D]> <[L]>. That way I only get one beneficiary at a time.
