    3. Hello everyone! Yes, we are definately working on putting all cemetary transcriptions on line. This is a good time to remind anyone out there:...if you volunteered to proof read the data base, we are waiting to hear from a few of you PLEASE respond to Eloine Chesnut's emails. In the meantime, please note that these transcriptions were donated for the website by the Jay County Genealogy Society, so they are in possession of the originals. The Jay County Genealogy Society will do look-ups for members and non-members alilke, obviously its cheaper for members and membership is $10.00. The cemetary inscriptions are a major source of information since early Jay County death records were destroyed in a flood. >From the main web page there is a link to the Jay County Genealogy from a secondary page. There they have listed thier membership fees and benefits, books for Sale, etc. They are a very active society and are soon to become the custodians of early probate records. the main page is at http://www.rootsweb.com/~injay and you will find the link in the right hand column under research assistance Amy -----Original Message----- From: Bob Shannon [SMTP:earth@televar.com] Sent: Thursday, February 10, 2000 12:30 AM To: INJAY-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: cemetery records At 08:51 PM 02/09/2000 -0600, Dem Bones wrote: >Have any of the Jay Co cemeteries been >indexed and put into book form? >If so are they for sale? >Thanks. >Dem bones. I am under the impression that our webmaster and friends are working on this and have been for some time....at least for Jay. Having spent many a day looking at old gravestones in esoteric locations I know how hard it is to do....... When such a book becomes available I would REALLY add my name to the list of buyers!
