Sounds like someone needs to start a new project. A web site with two main sections. One would linking to Civil War vets in established military cemeteries that are already on-line. Another section would be devoted to listing Civil War military graves located within individual community, church, and family cemeteries. I would be willing to be a part of a new project - anyone want to help? I can create the database, the web site, and I can donate web space. The HARD part would be gathering the material, transcribing paper records, and formatting the data properly to be ready for entry into the database. While I *can* do all of that as well, I simply don't have the time to take it all on (school, work, family, etc.) Anyone interested in becoming a part of a new project?

Tara, Although I live just over the state line from GA, I am in SC. Would love to help as much as possible. Transcribing is not a problem for me. However, getting the material would be my problem. I live about 130 miles from Morrow, GA. I agree that we should add those buried in counties or on private property. I am sure that there are a lot of graves now under roads, fields, buildings, etc. I am wondering if it would be possible to include those whose grave sites that are unkn, but families know that they were buried in a certain county. I am in that catagory. Mine was buried, but IF he was buried somewhere in a cemetery, a marker cannot be found. Also, consider the problem that wooden markers do eventually disappear! Maybe another catagory: Unkn burials. Nora -----Original Message----- From: Tara D.

Tara, This is something that I have been wanting to do for some time now. I can start with some cemeteries that are right here in Gwinnett County. I have already started, and completed about 3/4 of Fairview Cemetery in Eufaula, Alabama. I'm up to 167 vets who are buried there. From privates to generals. Count me in!

Leon, Have you found any Hood's buried there? My GGG grandfather Bold Robin Hood(really) was a surveyor who laid out the city of Eufaula in 1836 and died in Barbour County 1838. Cannot find his grave. Any help appreciated. I have looked in the cemetery--but it is as you know very large.
