Sorry I didn't catch your name, but, I would recommend that you try the Wisconsin State Historical Society: WSGS at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~wsgs/cemetery.htm They will send you a copy of the cemetery at a "small" fee... They are great and worth the few dollars... and you will get it within a week of mailing your check!!! I don't know who you were talking with but it sounds like the same old garbage, CONTROL is power... not worth wasting your effort arguing with them. I went to the county and got a bunch of grief, so I just ordered them through WSGS and got a GREAT deal for my money... Just my thoughts... R/S MAK YOU WROTE: I seem to have run into a situation - very new to me where an individual is in control of a cemetery's records. This is in Wisconsin. In a telephone visit she indicated a willingness to find my records and headstones but after a 2 month wait (and a postcard of followup) no reply seems to be forthcoming. She said "their attorney told the Board the records should only be given out thru her." I may have offended her in discussing the situation and mentioning the WI Cemetery Association and the fine work they are doing "reading" the cemeteries and the records. I would like replies to this situation but please reply to me directly so we don't fill up the List such as we have just gone thru on copyrights. There may be some situation here that I just don't understand. ===== ===== TheStorm http://www.rootsweb.com/TheStorm MAK = "Mar sea ah Ann Keel" ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
