When dealing with cemeteries, don't forget to take a look at the sexton's records if you can. Not everyone had a stone, and some have been destroyed by vandals and the ravages of time. Our genealogy society here in Omaha is reading several local city cemeteries, and all but one has been cooperating with us and letting us have the interment data base. That way, those who don't have stones can be included in the transcription with their interment date (possible then to find an obit, perhaps), and also to include complete interment date for those who only put the year of death on the stone. (Sometimes cemeteries do both death and interment date on their records, but often it is only interment.) Karen In a message dated 4/4/2009 12:54:08 P.M.

I am working on photos of gravemarkers for Centerville City Cemetery in Centerville, Utah One thing I can tell you.. There are MISSED ones even recent ones. Because I constantly checking nFS, WorldConnect, census for maiden surnames. Often I would turn up missing children and spouses in gravemarkers not found elsewhere. And often I would find the information to be incorrect in newFamilySearch because of wrong burial places. One example has a lady buried in western New York when in fact she did died there but was brought back to Massachusetts to be buried with family. That was 1828. A good source to check for them is http://gpp.jlconsulting.com/ 23 states now. W.
