The cemetery list is also online at http://www.angelfire.com/folk/alamo_masonic_cem/index.html . The SAGHS has done a tremendous job. There are photos of the gravestones on the website, which has been very helpful to me, because you can see what the cemetery used to look like, before the Masons quit maintaining it. In 20 years the bushes cover many of them. Ant nests keep me from clipping away some of the bushes. :( If lists that are now online are keeping the SAGHS from selling the book and getting needed funds, perhaps we could all figure out another way to help them. I would be happy to charge for guided tours of the Alamo Masonic Cemetery, and donate some of the proceeds to the SAGHS. I need to raise funds for replacement of the State Historical Marker, and for a Historical Cemetery Marker once we get it designated Sarah
