Hi Everyone, I got another web site for you all to check out. Thanks to Bill Wilson and his hard work for us all to enjoy. I got OVER 30 pictures of headstones on Via's, and other family lines. HAVE FUN!!

The site is www.friendsofallencounty.org Once you get to the site in the first column go to Indiana and other states scroll down and you will see some of the Augusta/Rockbridge Cemeteries that I have photographed and cataloged. There is an interesting technical note, Madison and Lucinda are buried right behind Bells Valley Church, however the sign at the cemetery states that it is called Andrews Cemetery, Bells Valley Cemetery is actually down the road about 1/2 a mile. I am in the process of trying to photograph and catalog Augusta, Rockbridge, Bath, and Rockingham cemeteries. The problem is I live about 4 hours away so the visits are not real frequent. However, here is the important part, when I go I photograph the ENTIRE cemetery, (I never know who is going to end up being related and who isn't so I get everyone.) The onl! y reason the you will not see a name is if the tombstone has deteriorated to the point where I can no longer read the inscription. I am finding that over and over the familles in this area continue to intermarry so the family tree gets larger and larger. I have been as far south as Covington, and can recall some Via's at Cedar Hill Cemetery in Covington as well, the problem is that I have not photographed that cemetery at this point. Additionally, there are more images being added to this site all of the time. The site is for the Allen County Public Library in Fort Wayne Indiana, this library is the largest genealogy library in the United States outside of the Mormons in Utah and the Library of Congress. The manager of the genealogy section is a friend and we are in the process of creating this site to place all of these images for everyone to be able to access for genealogy assistance. Hopefully this helps, and let me know if you make any additional discoveries. Bill Wilson
