Being able to locate the final resting place of our ancestors is a part of genealogy. Has anyone thought about contacting one of the Catholic organizations in the San Antonio area (Knights of Columbus, Catholic Life Insurance Union, etc.) to solicit them to help the Masons to clean up a mess (the cemetery) that should never have been allowed to get into the disgraceful state that it is in?

Hi Carroll.... Just for clarification, I agree, locating the final resting place of ancestors is a part of genealogy and appropriate for the list.... but that would be listing the names located in a cemetery and location and description of that cemetery. But a mission to clean up cemeteries and post daily chats about the progress is a "cause"... no matter how worthy, .... also it is strickly forbidden to post another person's message to the list, .... all this according to the rules put forth by Rootsweb as conditions for use of their List. The other message was my first about this subject and now this is my last before it becomes chat ;-) ... back to genealogy.... the really fun stuff. Have a good day....
