    1. [ILHAMILT-L] cemetery books
    2. Michelle Young
    3. Hello all; My name is Michelle Young and I am currently doing cemetery inscription books with pictures in White county... When I started this I asked a friend of mine to help me out with it which she did and then just by talking with her she was interested in doing some books of her own. I told her to pick a county and the county that she picked was Hamilton. We posted a message a few days ago and got a huge response from people who were interested in the book. I guess I am writing this to try and clarify what she is doing as I have read some of the postings on the price that it would take to do such a book and have found that some people are alittle apprehensive about the cost and then some people are giving her negative input which is fine as everyone has there own opinions which is exactly what we want out of each and every one of you. The cost of this book is not going to be alot..as we both have computers, a camera for our computers, and a printer. I am in contact with a lady that has done Wayne County cemeteries and while she does not make a profit--some people do not have a computer and the people that do have a computer still would like to have a book that they can make quick reference to. And even though she did her books in the 70's she is still getting alot of orders for them. I do want to commend Misty Flannigan for the task that she has taken on by putting all of the cemeteries on the net but at the same time I think that having a reference book is good to have also. So I do not think that what Tammy is doing would be a waste of time. Now if we have offended anyone in any way then an apology is in order and we will not move any further with this. If anyone is still interested in these books then please e-mail Tammy with your Hamilton County requests and me with your White County requests...:) Thank you for your time and all of your input.... Sincerely, Michelle Young
