It is NOT necessary to actually visit each of the 22 pages of inscriptions and search within each page for all the surnames you're researching. Here's how to do it easily: 1. Go to google's Advanced Search template at http://www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=en 2. In the "Exact Phrase" box, enter GRAVESTONE INSCRIPTIONS OF GREEN-WOOD CEMETERY 3. You can now do one of the following: a. enter ONE of the surnames you're researching in the "with all of the words" box , then click on the "Google Search" button OR b. enter multiple surnames you're researching in the "with at least one of the words" box, then click on the "Google Search" button (I recommend searching for one surname at a time, as described in 3a.) This search will look for instances of the surname(s) in all 22 pages of the cemetery inscriptions simultaneously.

I checked one name I have, but have many others to find, possibly in Green Wood but I don't know...with so many loose ends, it will be pretty tedious to go through all 22 pages (I have a LOT of folks unaccounted for as far as cemeteries go).

Now in the spring of 2007 it is complete. There are 22 pages of gravestone information. Apparently the people who originally wrote the info from the stones walked up and down the rows gathering this info. Therefore it is by gravestones, not alphabetized or by section. There is a search engine on each page that will help you BUT there are many many names that will repeat through out the 22 pages so be sure to check them all.
