    3. Scott, This is for Anne Hampton. Anne, believe you were responding to my post of a couple of months ago. Appreciate your willingness to check out Sanders Cemetery and Jackson Chapel Cemetery. I believe I have all the data I need from the tombstones of those from my family who are buried in these locations. I am asking interested parties to join the USGenWeb Special "Tombstone" Project and record their cemetery data permanently. If I had a couple of days at Sanders I would do it. Jackson's Chapel would take about the same amount of time. If someone would record all the tombstone inscriptions and submit them to USGenWeb (check www.usgenweb.org/ for details), many of us could get important birth/death info from the web. I have already recorded most of the data for my immediate family on past visits to the cemeteries, but as I delve deeper into the families of my ancestors I discover that other, previously unknown folks, are buried at the same cemeteries. Just a plea for those who have the time to help all the rest of us out.
