If you can see them, you can save them. Some of them are graphics so they will have to be printed and re-typed. We need some organization as to who is doing what. I have a list of cemeteries that need to be converted. If you want to work on a cemetery, let me know and I will keep a list so that folks aren't working on the same cemetery. Gina "David W.

I'm sorry I didn't know that was the problem. I'm surprised though that the library hasn't loaded PDF reader yet since there are so many pdf documents floating around. Maybe you could suggest that they load it on their machines. Ronda

Is this the cemetery book ya'll have been speaking of? I am continuing my work on the five Coolidge Cemeteries (Coolidge, Armour East, Armour West, Armour Hispanic and Norwegian). The original information submitted by Mr. Cox in the 1970s was good, however, when we are surveying the cemetery it is obvious why he was receiving so much grief about the update of 2002. A lot of the information was scrambled.The update was not a new survey, just addition of a few markers. Although, no one should have been rude or hounded him to correct his information, the removal of the surveys may have been a blessing in disguise. They need to be resurveyed. By the way, all markers are being photographed and the photos will be placed on the web. I want to submit them to Internment.com. If you have more suggestions I'm open. Rondina

I do not think these files can be converted. They looked like they are scanned or possibly copied and saved from an internet site.

I certainly thank the person or person who did the cemeteries. However like you, David, I cannot read them and I have an almost new Dell 4600 computer It would be great if someone would convert them into something we all can read. Wanda

Hopefully, I will be able to read the cemeteries Monday when the library opens back kup. I plan to leave up the pdf files when I get everything converted to plain text. But I also want to donate them to the archives at http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/tx/limestone/limetoc.htm which takes only plain text files. david > > > ==== TXLIMEST Mailing List ==== > http://www.rootsweb.com~txlimest/ > List adminstrator is David Morgan, dmorgan@efn.org > > David W.

Is this the > cemetery book ya'll have been speaking of? Not everybody can read pdf files. That is the reason. The book was published in 1988. And updates would be great. I know for a fact the a small child named Barber is listed under the name Wood in the Honest Ridge cemetery. It is correct on intemnet.net, though. david > I am continuing my work on the five Coolidge Cemeteries (Coolidge, Armour > East, Armour West, Armour Hispanic and Norwegian).
