    3. http://www.tngenweb.org/records/madison/riverside/mrc7-01.htm The Riverside Scrapbook Part VII is finished. The scrapbooks are cross-linked with "Tombstone Inscriptions in Historic Riverside Cemetery in Jackson, Tennessee" so that you can click on a link in in the Tombstons Inscriptions and go to more information about that person or family in the scrapbooks. If this is the only way you have visited the Scrapbooks you may be missing something. Tombstone Inscriptions is just that. It is a record of markers recorded by Jonathan Smith in the 1990s, or previously in 1975 or 1937. You have to hunt them down, but the Scrapbooks provide some names of people buried in Riverside Cemetery in unmarked or unidentified graves. The Scrapbooks really deserve a visit in their own right. I may eat these words later, but I have finished recording Madison County cemeteries for good. If someone else wished to do more, here is a list of cemeteries most in need of an update. Bemis would be the top priority. There is a 10-year old record online at a private web site, but it is split into multiple pages with photos, graphics, music, etc. For anyone with a dial-up modem connection like me the web pages take so long to download that the cemetery it is nearly inaccessible. I always have to get the book to look up anything there. Other cemeteries in the cemetery book for the southern half of the county most in need of updating are East Laurel Cemetery, the white Oak Grove Cemetery in the Westover community, and the white Clover Creek Cemetery in Medon (shown at wrong location on map in book). Cemeteries in the cemetery book for the northern half of the county most in need of updating are Bethel, Calvary, and Pleasant Plains. I really meant to do Calvary but I just never got around to it.
