    1. [ARJACKSO] cemetery article
    2. Mark Williamson
    3. Hi gang, The Ancestry Daily News has a very interesting article by George G. Morgan in today's edition: "A Visit with a Cemetery Administrator". You can find this online at: http://www.ancestry.com/library/view/news/articles/2326.asp (to Karen Hughes especially) I believe that Walnut Grove Cemetery has a sexton/administrator. At the Jackson County library, a business card taped to the front of one of the cemetery books has the sexton's name on it - I don't know when that card was taped in, though, and I didn't copy down the information. I read last year, somewhere on the Internet, a claim that each county in the U.S. has a person in charge of cemeteries, and all that you have to do to get information on cemeteries in your county is send a letter to the local Courthouse, attention: Cemetery Administrator. I don't know about that. I am swamped with work through December, and won't be of much use to y'all in following up on these things during the week. If someone knows about this or wants to followup on the information in the article, please feel free to chime in. Thanks, Mark Williamson ARJACKSO listkeeper [email protected]
