Joy, I am one that cannot afford to subscribe to the "pay to view" web sites. That is one reason that I got involved with the free web site projects like GAGenWeb, so I can place public records online for FREE. I do believe that we should have a cut off date and that we should have a Privacy Policy. But how far should we go? What about cemetery records where there is no death date on a tombstone? If there is a grave, but no date - should they be posted? When I do a cemetery survey, I check the Social Security Death Index. If the person is listed, then I put that date in brackets. I also do the same if only the year is given. But the question is should the surviving spouse be listed if they are still alive. Just the name or the birth date also? With all the web sites that I maintain, it will take a lot of time to go through each cemetery survey and remove the information about living people. Should I ask the submitter to update their submissions and remove living people?
