I wrote Diana off list, but the short answer to this
is No ... only text files are searchable in the
archives. Cyndie creates separate text files with all
the information from the stone and puts that into the
Chester Co. archives so when you search for a name on
one of the photo pages (at the Chester Co. Archives
page:
http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/pa/chester/index.htmthe
results will be a link to the text-only archives file.

I searched for a name in Green Mount from the Chester
Co. page and this is what the result was:
http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/pa/chester/cemeteries/greenmount.txt

We do the same process in MD where I'm the TP manager
and Cyndie is the Archives Manager. Lots of work for
both of us!!
