    1. [TGF] Citing WPA Cemetery records

    3. Hey, y'all. I need help! How would you cite WPA cemetery survey records? I am looking at online scans of the original book from 1939. The NC Dept. of Cultural Resources has scanned the surveys for 98 of the 100 counties in North Carolina and placed them online. If I read correctly, each county was an independent project, and the transcriptions were published separately by county. I have looked in _Evidence_Explained_ and found section 5.21 for "Compiled Cemetery Records: Published Works", but I cannot for the life of me find where these things were actually published. I'm looking in particular at a single transcription in a single cemetery included in the survey. Can anyone give me some guidance? Thanks in advance. Peace, Part of the Tree, Greg

    3. All, Rondina suggested I post the link to the image I'm accessing. Here is the link to the book: http://digital.ncdcr.gov/cdm4/document.php?CISOROOT=%2Fp15012coll1&CISOPTR=3 6296&CISOOP1=exact&REC=15&CISOBOX=love It is actually the result of a search for the string "love", and the cemetery I'm looking at is on page 25 from the list on the left. Thanks, Rondina, for reminding me to do this...
