This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Eo.2ADEAE/410 Message Board Post: Hi. I have just set up a web site for posting Georgia cemeteries and headstone photos to the internet. I am hoping to get volunteers to help, since I don't live in Georgia. My goal is to get every cemetery on line complete with directions and headstone photos. The website is here - http://www.rootsweb.com/~gajcemet2/gacem.htm If you are interested in having photos or just the information placed on the site, please send me an e-mail to Peggy, psmith1951@aol.com. Thanks, Peggy

Hi Peggy, I am interested in your project! I just clicked the link though, and the site was not found. Maybe you're just doing some maintenance at the moment. You definitely have an admirable goal with this project. Do you have specific plans to accomplish the goal, or is it kind of a "build it and they will come" plan? My only concern is that we already have Find A Grave, Interment.net, and lots of county rootsweb sites out there with good collections of cemeteries and associated tombstone photos and/or transcriptions. Won't this create double work by having another repository? There is also a Georgia Tombstone Transcription Project at http://www.rootsweb.com/~cemetery/georgia/georgia.html which is part of the USGenWeb Tombstone Photo Project. I'm planning on visiting Terrell County, GA next Sunday to do some surveys. I'm glad to donate them to this list if you like. I live in Smyrna, GA, a suburb of Atlanta, and I have plenty of Georgia ancestors. I also have several tombstone photos and transcription links on my website at www.roots2buds.net. Feel free to browse through. Thanks for letting us know of your new site!
