What, if any, is the subscription cost? ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, August 25, 2004 11:21 PM Subject: [KYWAYNE] Finding Cemeteries in Wayne County | Here is a great website to show on a map where quite a few cemeteries in | Wayne County are (or for other states and counties). Once you get to the webpage, | under "State or Territory", choose "Kentucky". Then type in "Wayne" for | "County Name". Use the drop down list under "Feature Type" to choose "cemetery". | Then hit the "Send Query" button and the Wayne County Cemeteries will be | listed. There's various ways to look at them. Just click on the cemetery you are | interested in. If you then choose the "Topo Zone" selection, it will show | the location of the cemetery on a topographic map. Make sure you change the map | size to "Large". You can look at the various other map types there to see | which best meets your needs. The aerial photography one is interesting, but I | find that it is hard to use, and you really have to know the roads and | buildings to know what you are looking at, and then move around. | | Anyway, for those of you who are looking for cemeteries this is a great | resource. | | Here is the website for that link: | http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/web_query.gnis_web_query_form | | Have fun hunting!!
