I agree on the being snubbed but if you pull the plug then they have actually gotten what they started out to do. Under their banner I would put "While we started this project in 2004 by numerous other volunteers and were the 1st Ontario wide cemetery site, we have graciously agreed to post our site in reference to Ontario Genweb" You are the first Ontario cemetery based web site, there's no doubt of that and a wonderful site too.!@ to pull the plus would be a great loss.

As most of you already know, this mailing list started a website entitled" Gateway to Ontario Cemeteries" in late March or early April of 2004. With the cooperation of many we have started a website that covers every county and district in Ontario. I would be telling a lie if I stated we had every Cemetery in Ontario covered........we don't but that is our goal. Janet and I made a point of seeking out other cemetery sites and ask the owners if we could link their sites to theirs. They were agreeable. Some sites not only had databases on a cemetery, but also had photos. About two months ago I got wind of a project that I thought was great, a Canada wide cemetery database providing location, transcripts etc. For some unknown reason they have never heard of our site, which I made the project managers aware of. Did I mention this project was launched late October of last year? I cannot understand why this project would want to duplicate work that is already done. Am I wrong for being annoyed? Should Janet and I just pull the plug on our Ontario Cemeteries Resources website when we were here first? I am not against the project, but I am against the duplication of something that is already up and running. The ladies who are in charge of the Ontario section of Canada GenWeb cemetery Project have been nice and have placed a link to our site. I am more than willing to carry the GenWeb banner on our site, but I feel we have been overlooked and snubbed, when{ in my opinion} we should be the official site for Ontario.
