    1. [GRAYSON] complete cemetery book
    2. Many counties across the U. S. have one book for their entire county which consolidates ALL the burials for all the cemeteries into one + index (I know of a large county that required 3 volumes to handle it). I've noted that these endeavors are usually the responsibility of a Historical or Genelogical Society for that county. Example: Rutherford Co, Tn had a complete survey in the 1940s of all the burials within their county, done by the DAR with index. In the 1980s, the Historical Society did another up-to-date survey of all the burials within Rutherford Co, Tn with index. So this county has been done TWICE. This seems to be a fairly common thing especially in Tennessee. I am pretty sure that the very large Dallas Co, Tx has already done theirs, and last I heard, Tarrant Co, Tx was nearing completion on theirs. Does anyone know if there are any plans for ONE complete cemetery book covering all existing cemeteries in Grayson Co...or in Fannin Co? Or, perhaps same data to be placed on line? Hope so.
