1. Re: [INPCRP] Re: Unidentified subject! [1]
That word 'May' in the Cemetery Registry Law is a HUGE word as we have seen before. Makes the laws useless. I still wonder what makes our ancestors a Natural Resource.

2. [INPCRP] Dearborn County cemeteries [0.98466]
I've been watching with great interest the intense discussion about legislation, etc. I can easily see how very discouraging the process can be, but we have to keep trying and pushing for better laws. I made a survey of more than a hunted old cemeteries in Dearborn County for a Bicentennial project in the 70's, and since then every year someone finds another. Dearborn currently has a cemetery committee and we are preparing to approach the county commissioner about an official commission. We plan to proceed
3. [INPCRP] question about HB 1758 [0.98466]
I saw the question about burial grounds as addressed in HB 1758. Last year the cemetery protection legislation provided penalties in Sec. 2.1 for damaging a cemetery, but the term burial ground was unintentially omitted. Perhaps a paste-up of the HB 1758 language below about "burial grounds" might clarify that "burial grounds" are to be given the same level of protection as cemeteries, and a person causing damage to such would receive the same penalty as a person who damaged a legally defined cemetery.

I am still reeling from the Mississinewa Mem. Cem./Vernon Cemetery combination of umpteen years ago,.. talk about pathetic...and I just don't know what to do about it. I have yelled for 20-30 years but it seems currently it is not in vogue to discuss dying and it's aftermath it eems.[ Somehow in a strange way it doesn't seem 'personal' to anyone..isn't that odd] You all have been doing such a remarkable job that it would be a travesty to stop now....we just need a bigger voice.

Hello group I hope I have'nt been forgoton as some of these cemeteries may be if we don't keep fighting. I'm sorry I don't get on here more often, but I have been busy here. I am trying to locate Rev. Soldiers burials with no stones in site. I do read all of the lists comments and must say I am so proud of all who are involved. I have kept silent because I thought you were all doing so well in your counties, what kind of difference could I make? But now I see that it takes everyone doing their part.

Bob Berlin , whose son Aaron cleaned up Gossett Cemetery in Hendricks Co., IN (and a member of the INPCRP e-mail group) reports that another cemetery very close to Gossett Cemetery is apparently "in the way" of a new subdivision. Based on Jack Briles' abysmal report on stiffling the wholesale relocation of pioneer cemeteries in Floyd Co., IN, my hopes of stopping yet ANOTHER cemetery dislocation aren't real high. However, Bob, there are a couple of things you need to determine first: (1
7. [INPCRP] Congratulations, and Thanks for Caring [0.98466]
Aron, I have only the deepest respect for a young man that will give up his time, for people he never knew. In the years ahead you will have something to look back on with pride. Not many young men in this day and time can even come close. I'm sure you will lead a very productive life. I thank you on behalf of all those you helped, that can't thank you. Jack E. Briles Sr. jb502000@aol.com Jeffersonville, In.
8. RE: [INPCRP] Recipe for grout? [0.98466]
Hi, Andi, Merle and I were on your team, remember? My notes say: Grouting (a very thin mortar) 3 parts cement (White Portland) 2 parts lime fine sand Mix 1:1 (cement + lime): (sand) Clean out slot (use water, air, rope) Use potters clay to close sides--opening at top. Pour in grout to about 1 inch from opening; let set 3 days. Remove clay after a few days. Cap with mixture of: 2 parts cement 1 part lime 7 parts sand Color depending on color of stone (will lighten over time.) Hope this helps, Ruth -----
9. Re: [INPCRP] Speak up about our Pioneer Cemeteries [0.98466]
If I may add my two cents worth... I feel part of our problem as a group is our short time of existence. Lois has done a wonderful job with this group, and had some great results with last year's legislative process, but in the realm of things, we are still very unknown and unproven. My question has always been where's our state and local historical societies and genealogical societies? Maybe we're all at fault for not getting them more involved in our endeavor. Some of these organizations, in ma

Hi Lois and all members, I have read all of the postings from so many of you and I have just been quiet, so now I will say what I think. Lois , don't give up...you have done so much good for what you believe in. I know from experience that you care. But it does seem like we are fighting a big battle here. As Lois knows, my old Peckinpaugh Family Cemetery , in Crawford Co. , IN. was in very bad condition and I got a group of relatives together, as well as Lois, and we cleaned it all up. I also had written t

Ron, In the past week, I have been interviewed by newspapers in Columbia, South Carolina, Orlando, Fla, Jackson, Mississippi and a TV station in Maryland concerning current endangered cemeteries situations. What I have found is that no matter what time of year it may be, media outlets all over the country are jumping to get stories like this because of the interest that they generate in their readership / viewers. Here in Atlanta, I see at least one article a month in the local paper dealing not only with

Jack, Find a news reporter that you can send this to, and then let them do the checking. It's pretty hypocritical of them to say this will "help" when it's obvious there are no teeth in it...

14. Re: [INPCRP] Cemetery Legsislation [0.98466]
To all, The cemetery laws written in the sixties provides protection and funding for cemeteries. These laws provided ways and means for county officials with 'initiative' to care for their cemeteries. A few counties used these laws but most disregard because of the word MAY. The most recent Legislation for cemeteries continues to utilize the word MAY, making all of their efforts USELESS. I don't want to demean Representative Lytle's efforts and hard work for he is trying to help. But, the word MAY is USELE

Today, I visited the site of a Pioneer cemetery. Or where it had been, with 7 Stones on the site, there had been 1 very Large one with 2 names on it, man and wife. I also Visited the Site where the remains ??? had been moved. The 5 Marble tablets looked very nice. They had been sanded nice and white, A very nice site. Unless you see 3 places where the ground was dug up to put Small Cremation Boxes of Remains of a minimum of 8 people. The size of the burial spots for at least 8 people looked like som

Hello Robin, I am way behind reading my EM's. When you said you traded in your old camera did you mean that literally or do you still have it? I am the Indiana Coordinator for English Springer Spaniel Rescue inc., a 501c3 non-profit corp. formed to help re-home ESS's. What would you take for your old digital camera? I need an inexpensive camera to take pictures to put on our web site for potential adopters to see. You are in Indiana right? Thanks for your cemetery work. Joni Indianapolis, IN http://www.
17. [INPCRP] dowsing [0.98466]
Hello. I am wondering if anyone of you do dowsing for graves or know of someone who does. I am in the process of having an old pioneer cemetery cleaned up. There is supposed to be about 45 people buried there. There are not enough headstones to account for that many people. We will be erecting a fence around the cemetery. I want to make sure everyone buried in the cemetery is included in the boundaries. I heard of remote sensing, but that is way too expensive. The township and county can not afford that amo
18. [INPCRP] Senate bill for a "Dept of Indiana Heritage", SB 510 [0.98466]
I agree with Ron Baldwin that the Cemetery Registry program should not be in the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, but in an appropriate Department. Problem is Indiana doesn't presently have a Department of History, or Cultural Resources, or some more suitable department. When history, archaeology, and eventually cemeteries were in turn assigned to a Department, they were combined with State Parks, State Forests, Fish & Wildlife, State Museums & Historic Sites, etc., and State Mine Reclamatio

Hello, When one is attempting to locate the boundaries of an old cemetery to have it fenced and create a permanent record of it's location and dimensions, one should to strive to be as accurate as possible. Most people recommend first researching old records to see what description of the plot may already exist. Check old plat maps and Surveyors records to see if a plat or survey was ever made of the cemetery. Check the WPA Graves Registration Project records to see if this cemetery was surveyed a

Jack, Just know that one day things WILL be different. Keep thinking about the things that were said could never be done. WE WILL PREVAIL..... Some how we must find a way to keep up the fight. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that our cause is just and God is on our side. One day we will be able to meet those that are resting in the graves we are fighting for. I also KNOW that they will be grateful for even the smallest amount of progress we make. The rewards are always as great as the

Jack, I for one want to applause you , you have put into words, what I haven't been able to say, but have felt about these Pioneer Cemeteries and our Ancestors. If we don't take the time and energy to go ahead and do our best to preserve these sacred burial grounds, who will. We are going to make a trip back to Crawford Co., this spring to try to locate a Rice-Peckinpaugh Cemetery, (these people who were buried there are family members of mine) that was brought to my attention. It has been neglected to the

Jack; I know the frustration of not wanting a cemetery moved and the fight that is involved but you must never give up. I managed to, along with the help of others putting in tons of work to stop one of the largest coal mines around from getting an order to disinter. Much to our suprise. You have got to take a breath and know that major steps can be taken they are just at little paces and there is much more work to be done. Do not give up the effort when we have started to move forward. There is much m
