Many thanks to my good friend and
brother in Christ Bob Vincent for donating the space on his web site
and for setting the board up. If anyone needs any help with internet
issues he is your man.
He did the logo for the site, featuring
a picture of the county’s namesake examining a list of grave sites.
He says he is no professional when it comes to graphics but it looks
good to me.
I know of three printed lists of local
grave sites and a few web sites with lists but no bulletin boards
where people interested in local graves can exchange information. I
have a personal interest in this, being a native myself with
ancestors buried in various places about the area.
I hope to provide a place where people
can post and find information not available elsewhere and where
people can share their experiences researching local gravesites.
The site can also be useful as a
genealogical resource, since kin and sometimes friends would be
buried together. My research has been useful in finding the grave of
a surfman drowned in a notable rescue attempt and I hope to preserve
the memory of an unmarked cemetery which might have been otherwise
lost.
