Construct from parent - island parcel/subdivision

[JeffWard]

I am trying to get a process together for entering our parcels into the parcel fabric and the local government information model.  Is it advisable to start with a parcel representing an entire PLSS section and then use construct from parent? Or is it better to start with one of the individual parcels and build out from there?

I have been experimenting with the construct from parent method and I run into a problem when I am entering a subdivision that is an island within the full section.  I enter the connection lines to the point of beginning and then enter the standard boundary lines for the subdivision, but when I build and mark the parent as historic, the connection lines to the point of beginning are duplicated in the two remaining parcels.

Or do I create a new parcel in a plan, then once that one is created and joined, create a remainder parcel of the full section?

I wanted to be able to use the basis of bearing option, but it is only available in the Construct From Parent?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,
