It will be an interesting project. Maybe it will be tough indexing what is sent and resent over and over unless people who are taking pictures first check to see what has been done already.

The GPP has the automatic indexing. As soon as photo is uploaded and approved, the name show up in indexes of surnames and in search results of given and surnames. Those ladies with known maiden surnames are also indexed and included.

What I meant was the people who are taking the pictures not knowing just what was uploaded might waste a lot of time, people are going to have to study the site and know all the pictures already loaded so they do not duplicate them. This is why I was mentioning some one starting a work groups and doing things in an organized way. No one is going to pop out to a cemetery just to take pictures just to find out if they are already on the site . There should be an index " John Jones took pictures first 3 rows yadda yadda cemetery" So Charlie Chan can go get the next set. Should be a way people can sigh up and say what they are doing and when. Also there is no way most people will take tools and make it a work project, now I said * most* people, ** not all* because we have cleaned lots of them, I even found one that was 2 inches under sod, it was in my grandfolks plot, altho we have no idea who it is.
