arolyn and others, This information has been posted on line, for free, for a number of years. The Veteran's Administration is just now catching up with the program. Here are a couple of other web sites which already house this data. Find A Grave http://www.findagrave.com/ Interment.net http://www.interment.net/Default.htm I have no connection with either of the above web sites. Searching and information of both are free of charge and always have been. I've been using them for quite some time.
