    3. The Polk County Cemetery Preservation Committee is compiling a new cemetery book. So far they have surveyed 57 of the 100 plus cemeteries in Polk County, GA. Plus they have seven more cemeteries assigned. To see a list of the cemeteries, please go to http://www.usgennet.org/usa/ga/county/polk/Cemeteries.html They still need volunteers to help with the remaining surveys, typing and verifying the surveys. They also need help with compiling information about the cemeteries - date established, who gave land for cemetery, etc. So far, more than a dozen cemeteries have been located that were NOT in any previous cemetery book of Polk County, GA. If you know of a remote cemetery that is not on their list or can help with the project, please e-mail them at pccpc@earthlink.net Once all the cemeteries have been surveyed and verified, they plan to publish a cemetery book. The profit from the book will be used to help clean up the "forgotten" cemeteries in Polk County. Doris
