Walt,

A good place to start would be to make sure that you really do want to
create a Tag--from what you wrote below, it might be enough to add the
tombstones to your Master Source List (MSL) and then cite them on the
Death or Burial Tag. It depends on whether you want whatever's written
on the tombstone to be printed in the body of a narrative report. If
you simply want to document the fact that you have personally seen the
tombstones as well as possibly that they are your source for birth/death
dates or marriages, then you are better off entering them as a source in
your MSL and citing them in support of other Tags.

If you want to go the MSL route, then let us know and I'm sure there
will be some examples of tombstone sources sent out.
