Subject: RE: [TNDECATU] Search on cemetery pages


Robbie,

I was never able to use those links either and I didn't know what a "Pico
Search" block was until I accessed the webpage. ....Although I had used
them numerous times I had just never paid attention. :o)

For some reason, I can't get a link that goes straight there, but this is
how I get there:

1. Go to this link: http://www.henderson-lea.hc.k12tn.net/

2. Next, click on the green button to the left that says "area history".

3. On this page you will see all kinds of cool links to information
pertaining to Henderson Co & Decatur Co, and the cemetery links are on this
page as well.

4. When you get to the actual cemetery page, (like Henderson), you will see
a small box with the words "Pico search" on the left and "search" on the
right. Just type in what you want to search.

About the Pico search...you will love it!!! I can't tell you all the
countless hours I've spent searching through these cemetery records for
someone. This search feature is wonderful!

I've also used the Pico search to look for lost females. You know there are
so many of us who have females that, either we don't know who they married,
or we don't know who they were before they married.

I've use the Pico search to search the given name of "Minerva", for example,
and then all the Minerva's buried in Henderson Co pop up. Of course, this
hasn't really given me anything exact, but it helps provide clues for me.
Also, I imagine if you searched for the names "Mary" or "Sarah", ALL the
cemeteries would pop up, so that wouldn't work so well for a common name.
...and of course you have to enter the various spellings and variations....

Hope this helps. Let me know how you like the Pico search box! :o)

Sandra
