To Do

Project members are needed to:

• Assist with data collection and grave marker transcriptions

Additional photography is needed, and previously collected data can be sent by email to other members willing to assist with transcriptions.

• Link existing profiles or create new profiles for persons listed in the Table of Interments

When complete, everyone listed in the Table of Interments will be linked to their own WikiTree profile, and to a photo of that person's corresponding grave marker. The created profiles can include other genealogical and biographical information as well as a listing of sources for documentation.

• Validate links and transcription information

Profile and photo links and transcribed information needs to be cross-checked to ensure accuracy.

• Create an audio/video tour of the cemetery

Record a virtual tour of the cemetery that can be viewed as downloadable media on computers, tablets or other device. Such a tour would take the viewer around the cemetery to explore the history of the people buried here. Background information can be supplied. Those with mobile internet access can access online links to more information.
