Is there a minimum number of burials required to create a category for a cemetery?

Question

I live 2 doors down from a cemetery. It is an extremely small cemetery, but it has a name and Find A Grave. According to Find a Grave there are two identified grave markers (meaning engraved and legible markers) and one that is just a pile of bricks. I believe my neighbor said there were more like 5 or 6 grave markers there. Is this too small to document for the Cemeteries Project? I'm also concerned because Find A Grave says the cemetery is in Centerville, GA, but it's actually in Warner Robins, GA. They do have the GPS correct. Their memorial biography is also incorrect in every way; wrong husband, wrong children, etc.

I've done a bunch of research on the two people buried. They are a woman who died in 1909 and her niece's husband. I am about to create their profiles here, but was wondering if the cemetery is too small for inclusion at WikiTree.

Go for it , and the more corrections that can be made to Find A Grave locations the better. They have been very badly handled in the past in my opinion with wrong names, wrong addresses etc.

Answer 1

Lucy,

There is no minimum number.  It is OK to have only one memorial for a cemetery.  I suggest that you use the correct location and add a note stating that it is different than the location used at Find A Grave.

I have had good results making suggestions for changes at Find A Grave - and suggest you send suggestions to Find A Grave as well.

I normally do submit corrections. I just like to have my sources straight, so BAM! Especially since they had a long story about how her husband was really Green Lovett and not James Louvitte. Then they talked about her three sons, but she only had the one. There are so little early records for the area because apparently it was not populated when they came here. I was looking at old maps and Georgia just looked like spillage from Tennessee and South Carolina in the early 1800s. There weren't any towns in the middle or south of the state, just militia districts. I'm also preparing a free space of those for others to use as reference. I'm using pieces of maps and it is a little tedious. I couldn't find a listing anywhere on the internet.
