Beautiful. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, March 03, 2006 7:26 PM Subject: [MO-CEM] Re: MO-CEMETERIES-D Digest V06 #34 Most of the cemeteries I contribute to are in Morgan County, MO and Fairfield County, OH some Cole County, MO. I cleaned a small cemetery near me that has four stones and transcribed it into a Texas cemetery site. There were Henry's buried there. Now if you love old stones spend a day this week end saving the information from a couple stones. Wow, that would be a real contribution. Here I would like to thank Bill and Dorothy Williams of Morgan County for taking three years of their lives in transcribing all the cemeteries in Morgan County. All the days of my life I will remember the look on my Mother's face that she got to see her great grandfather's grave before she died. It was down from the farm where she was raised but she could never find it because it was so black from time and it couldn't be read. I bleached it and it's lovely message is saved for posterity as well as the stone is just as beautiful 10 years later as it was the day I cleaned it.
