CEMETERY LISTINGS: Several minor (and some not-so-minor) updates to some cemetery listings. Thank you to all the contributors who send in corrections and additions!! The latest listings can be found on the Cemetery Index web page.

New information is added to this website nearly every day. The major areas we're working on now are the cemetery listings, the obituary index, and "Past Events" (articles from local newspapers). If you are looking for something and don't find it today, it could show up in a few more days. Or just ask the mailing list. You never know who could have exactly what you need!
You are the     visitor since the counter was installed on 22 Mar 1998.

With regard to items found on this web site ...

You are more than welcome to use anything you find on this web site in your personal genealogy research files. However, please cite your sources correctly when you do so. Many wonderful volunteers have spent a tremendous amount of time transcribing, typing and contributing data so that you can find it easily. Give them the credit that they deserve. If you find an obituary on these web pages for your great great grandfather that was published in a local newspaper, YOUR source is NOT JUST the newspaper, but is the person who transcribed that obituary.

If you are using a photograph of your great-great-grandfather's tombstone in your genealogy files, please give credit to the photographer.

If you publish your genealogy anywhere (in book form, a personal web site, etc.) you MUST obtain written permission from the photographer to use that photograph BEFORE you republish the picture with the appropriate credit. Photographs are automatically copyrighted by the photographer, according to law, by the mere fact that they are published. Copying them to other websites (or any other media) without permission is a violation of copyright law.
