G2G: Where is the list of cemeteries?

Question

Where is the list of cemeteries? I would like to access this list but when I click on the link that was sent out via a weekly email, it does nothing but spin and spin and spin. I've refreshed and reloaded about 100 times.

Here's the cemetery category list:

Hopefully what you want is there.

When I click "view map" it just spins. No map or anything populates. What am I doing wrong?

hmmm .. It worked for me, however it did take awhile, several minutes, for the application to populate ... [especially upon the first load.]

If you start typing the name of a cemetery, then suggestions start popping up quicker (I guess it reduces the size of the list it's trying to display)

We are currently processing 77,000+ cemeteries for display on the map, so it can take a bit to load all of the data - depending on your internet speeds and how much traffic is on the map at a given time. It's quite a bit of data!

@Joe - The search will not speed up processing. It is not populated until the data is fully loaded - in which case the map is also populated.

https://apps.wikitree.com/apps/harris5439/cemeteries/ is the cool map link. 

It should take you to a world map with green dots. Zooming in starts separating those dots into smaller numbers getting closer to the location you may want to look at.

Thank you all so much! I found the cemetery I was looking for (Safford City Cemetery) in Safford, Arizona. I have well over 50 close relatives buried there!
