Jane, You always have so much to share. This week I saw a listing for a course, day length, on how to publish your own whatever. Couldn't help thinking of that and you and all of us waiting to find information. I don't know whether I will be able to get to that course or not, depends on what happens here in the interim ( and something is always happening even though we are retired). Will let you know what develops or if I can contact the woman who is giving the course as I think she lives in a nearby city (to me). I have my own interest from the genealogy standpoint but also someday I am going to write a mystery story. Only problem is that I am a generalist at heart so know a little bit about a lot of things and have to figure out ways to make my main livelihood or experiences an interesting setting. As I read the information you shared, I wanted you to know that we do appreciate the work you are doing and realize how much time that collecting all those names can take. Individuals are doing that on a one by one basis in the US and also there is a major project going forward that I run across from time to time. As I understand it, most of these are volunteer efforts and hope to pool that work into a major collection of graveyard inscriptions and cemetery listings with those interred. There is also a project of mapping these cemeteries and I had hoped to be involved with that in the area where my father's family is from (Sierra County, California) as there is a major problem with these isolated gravesites in that people are stealing the markers. You can walk through the areas and notice, even if you have not been there before, that a grave marker really should be in that place and it is not. Unfortunately, there seems to be no way to protect some of these places except to keep them quiet and not share unless you are very sure of the person you give the info to. And also, unfortunately, there are often ways to by-pass the towns where inhabitants would notice strangers--you know the old back way in. Anyway, thanks Jayne ( I go back and forth on how you spell your name for some reason), keep up the good work--it is an act of faith! Cathy Rossing
