Thank you for replying Sharon but I guess I'm just dense..."where" (site address) can your "postings" of these cemetery lists be found (internet address)? When I was in Rootswebs' Tombstone Project a couple days ago, they only showed your name on one cemetery list, but they had many where they didn't show credit (they must be yours). Thanks again. Marsha Hankins ----- Original Message ----- From: Sharon Bryant To: INPUTNAM-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Thursday, August 31, 2000 4:25 PM Subject: Cemetery Inscriptions Dear Listers, I received the following message which I am passing along to all of you. And I will answer Ms. Hankins question following her message. >>I don't understand why this needs to be done since it's already being done on rootsweb (USGW Tombstone Project). So posting to Putnam seems like a duplication of effort. Can you explain the reasoning here to me? Thanks. Marsha Hankins<< Dear Marsha and others who may not understand, The USGW Tombstone Project depends on volunteers to walk these cemeteries, transcribe them and submit them to the USGW Tombstone Project. If you will go to the USGW Tombstone Project registry for Putnam County, IN you will find that all of the cemeteries listed there with the exception of two are listings which I have provided. There is no duplication of effort except that the information can be found in two different places and not everyone may be familiar with the USGW Tombstone project. Whenever I post a cemetery listing it is picked up and included in the USGW Tombstone Project with my blessings.

Hi everyone, Thank you all so much for volunteering. The response was so overwhelming I'm still trying to get it sorted out. I will be building a new contact list containing the email addresses for those who volunteered. In the meantime, I would like for this to be as meaningful as possible for everyone who helps, so -- if there is a particular township that you're interested in, please let me know. Only a few of them have been completed. And some of them are very heavily NOT done yet. There are a couple for which I don't have listings and they are big ones; I'm working on how to get copies of those. I will contact each of you individually to get a snail mail address so that I can send you the copies I have. I do have to warn you though some of these are very old readings and the type is faint so you may have to dig out a magnifying glass. Until later, Sharon

Sharon, As I offered the other day, just send me a cemetery to transcribe and I'll do it. You pick the cemetery. I work at my pace. That's the deal.

Dear Listers, I received the following message which I am passing along to all of you. And I will answer Ms. Hankins question following her message. >>I don't understand why this needs to be done since it's already being done on rootsweb (USGW Tombstone Project).

Hello, I have been procrastinating with finishing my mother's maternal line into a book which we started researching some time ago. Because it suddenly "dawned" on me that not only am I not immortal but neither is she (she's 78) I decided I had better get cracking on this if she is to see it completed in her lifetime. But, we have been making such great progress with the Putnam County records that I'm torn and yet I need to set some priorities here. So, here's the deal: I made photocopies of many cemetery listings from Putnam County and have been slowly typing them up to put on the website. If one or more of you would be able to type these up for me, it would progress much quicker and I could go ahead and work on Mom's Baker family. It won't take any fancy software to do this - MS Word or Works would be fine. I only have one copy of each of these cemetery listings and some are not in the best of conditions (readability that is) but I would be willing to send you what I have if you will type and then return the file to me as an attachment to an email. It would then be very easy just to copy and paste into my webpage software and we could get them on-line. Any takers? If anyone is interested I can prepare a list of the cemeteries I have and you can choose your own "poison." Thanks, Sharon

Hi everybody, I am exceptionally glad to be sending you this message this morning. Thank you everyone who offered prayers and good thoughts. Yes, I think God pointed a finger and said "hey you! Slow down!" I went through a heart catherization on Monday and had two stents implanted in the right coronary artery on Tuesday afternoon. Came home this morning. Feel good; have not been in pain since my admission through the ER early last Friday morning. In fact, I've been bugging them to let me go home since I woke up Friday morning. The cardiologists assure me there was no damage to the heart muscle. There is a family history of atherosclerosis and this was, I am sure, my official notice that I am not immortal. So I will take it easier than I have been. Glad to be back with you, Sharon

Hi: My 4 Great Grandparents, John and Tabitha Huffman, were residents of Putnam County, IN from approximately 1829 until their deaths in the 1860's. (They emigrated to IN from Garrard County, KY.)

Also does anyone have a directory of the Brick Chapel Cemetery? (We could not locate the tombstone of Tabitha Huffman on our visit to this cemetery in the fall of 1998.)
