Teri, I'm on another list that does the automatic posting. Personally, I like it! I don't have the time to keep checking the boards often, and doing it this way not only keeps me updated, but saves me some time ... plus (I guess I got lucky), several have been interesting enough for me to contact the submitters.

(Found in my travels) Mary Ann (et al) Leon has completed the Colorado Council of Genealogical Societies' "Active Colorado Cemeteries" index. It is on-line in the CCGS pages at http://www.rootsweb.com/~coccgs/co-cemeteries-index.html The CCGS list provides the cemetery name, address, county, point of contact, telephone number, physical location and legal description. It is the "definitive" on-line list of active Colorado Cemeteries. The "Active" list doesn't show the abandoned cemeteries and single/family grave sites that were in the original CCGS "Colorado Cemeteries" (paper/out of print). As with all consolidated lists gathered from various resources, the information needs to be taken with a grain of salt. I noticed several errors in the listing for my part of Colorado.

Am trying to place my grandfather on the Western Slope between 1882 and 1895. He supposedly owned a fruit orchard. Can someone point me in the right direction? Was there a census taken in 1885 in the state of Colorado? Thanks, in advance, for any help you can give me. Sheila MARSDEN Bickerton Originally of Pueblo, CO, now in San Leandro, CA

Benjamin died in the mid 1940's and my older brother told me he thought it was 1947. Are you able to give me any information concerning either of them regarding their final resting place, dates of death and perhaps even verify they are indeed in the Norwood Cemetery?

Cody Cemetery on Lookout Mt, all in Jefferson County. Thanks Vikki! Tombstone Photos: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/co/costones.htm Since 1 Mar, I have uploaded Tombstone Photo Project headstone images for cemeteries in: Adams (new Archive TOC page!!!), Arapahoe, Boulder, Denver, El Paso, Fremont, Grand, Gunnison, Jefferson, Lake, Las Animas and Phillips Counties. I still have prints on my desk to scan for Fremont's Lakeside Cemetery and just got two new digital images for Garfield's Rosebud Cemetery but the bottom of my pile is now in site! Thanks for putting the word out on your lists. The response has been tremendous. I still have 12 volunteers to be heard from who promised to mail me prints to scan and one of Amber's Tombstone Transcription volunteers is taking pictures of every headstone in the cemetery he is working on and is sending me duplicate prints to scan.

The Colorado USGenWeb Archives has embarked on a project to collect photographs of tombstones in Colorado Cemeteries. The goal is to have an on-line text transcription of Colorado cemetery records and headstones via the Colorado Tombstone Project plus photographs of the headstones via the Colorado Tombstone Photo Project. We are not asking that you adopt a Colorado cemetery, buy a digital camera and photograph every tombstone, although that would be nice <grin>. We are simply asking that you share the photos you already have of headstones that you have taken in Colorado cemeteries during the course of your research. We need "sharp, tightly cropped" photos of headstones taken close enough to read the engraved text instead of general area or family plot cemetery photographs. The project goal is to document the information on the grave markers so researchers who can't visit the cemetery themselves have a "first generation" source for their kin's grave marker in addition to the volunteer text transcriptions. Subscribers with headstone photos to donate please contact me directly for submission details.

Hi, The Mesa County Genealogical Society read all of the newspapers in the area, starting with the very first one, and typed cards for all reported deaths. The file is very extensive but some are missing. Some people "needed" the information and have helped themselves to the cards. :-( The other problem is that not all deaths were written up in the paper. Good Luck.

Hi everyone: I have found out that Mary Catherine Andrews Menefee died on Aug 16, 1929 in Grand Junction. Where would be the best place to write for an obituary? Is anyone else working on this family? I would love to correspond with them. Debbie
