3. Re: [Old Bones CEMETERY-L] Neglected Cemetery [1]
Peggy and Listers, I'm a newbie on this list, so forgive me if I'm repeating. There are several old cemeteries that I routinely visit. I know that in order to do anything I have to get permission from the owner/administrator, but I'm wondering if you can give me some guidance about repairing old stones, particularly those slabs we always see broken on the ground. I've seen quite a few that have been patched and reset. I'm wondering if someone can tell me what the proper procedure and materials would be

Check with the state you are in. The State Historical commission for that state can give you the info you need. I have been trained in Texas restoration. In Texas NO ONE ever owns a cemetery. The dead own it. A family can have 'dominion'over their family cemetery and a commerical cemetery can own the charter to care for it but there is no owner. It can be surveyed as part of a property but you cannot buy a cemetery. The people on the land cannot sell it and must by Texas law give a way to get in to it. You
5. [Old Bones CEMETERY-L] New Tree-Stump Tombstones Book [1]
Hi all, It's been pretty quiet in here lately so I thought I'd bring some exciting news to those of you who might be interested.... I just received Susanne S. Ridlen's new book "Tree Stump Tombstones: A Field Guide to Rustic Funerary Art in Indiana". I haven't read through it yet, but it seems to detail the rustic symbolism employed and many variations of this type of monument. I hope the information in this book will *finally* end the assertion by some that all tree-stump monuments were b

The Texas Highway Department is always erecting those green highway signs for cemteries. Maybe you could contact them, too?

Joretta, I know what else you can do with the photos once you've entered their inscriptions into your files. Cemetery Photos is a website and mailing list that tries to match up photographers with genealogists. You could volunteer your photos.

Kay, If you haven't already, you may want to try to contact an historical society in that area. Start at the USGenWeb, from there you can go to the MO GenWeb, and from there the county where Nevada is located. Sometimes you will find volunteers willing to do look-ups for you. Or they just may have better suggestions. Darla ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ron" To: Sent: Friday, July 21, 2000 7:44 AM Subject: [Old Bones CEMETERY-L] Re: John Samuel Hall,

Linda Menikos : And how do we go about having a sign made showing the name of the cemetery, to be placed along side the county road near the gate. Are there places that do the signs routinely? I have contacted the Bridges & Roads dept of the county and they will install it if we furnish it. Save Texas Cemeteries, Inc. has a sign source that can make a good-size black on white sign for you for less than $100. I'm not certain about the cost, but I can find it ou

Hi Steve, and all you folks out there who have suggestions-- We are going to restore an old family cemetery that is on privately owned land. In fact, it is now in a cow pasture, and the cows have knocked down all the tombstones. We are going to clean out the brush, fence it, and here we need help, how do you get the tombstones back upright. They must be awfully heavy, and we don't want to break them. I know some are broken, how do we fix them? And how do we go about having a sign made showing the name

I would not be too complacent about the CDs providing permanent storage. We still don't know how long the CDs will last. Pre-recorded CDs are presently estimated to have a life of about 50 years and the span for recordable CDs is significantly shorter. Recordable CDs are easily scratched, and some scratches can make the disk unreadable. To make matters worse, we have no guarantees that there will be any CD players around, since the technology is changing so rapidly. I recently heard from a person who ha

20. Re: [Old Bones CEMETERY-L] Thanks Everyone!!! [1]
Jan, Just a thought, but have you considered calling the local newspaper? I think you may be able to shame them (the twp.) into giving it, at the least, basic care like mowing. After all, if the twp. is responsible, then they are responsible. Period. It seems to me that none should take priority over another.

Yeah, it's pretty cool. My camera does not have the floppy disk in it. I take my laptop to the cemetery with me, and leave it in the car. When I fill up the camera with images, I transfer them to the laptop, and then go back and photograph some more. One thing I would worry about the Sony, is that operating the floppy disk drive will suck down a lot of battery power. Better take extra batteries with you.
