Submitting Cemetery Information for the Website

We are always pleased to receive cemetery information to post on the Tri-County Genealogical Society website. If you have information to send, please send it in the following format (if possible):

Last Name, First Name, Middle, Birth date, Death date, any information on the tombstone, including "shares a stone with ..." Please use upper and lower case letters, not all caps. For dates, please use day, month, year as the format.

For example:

Smith, Frederick I., 25 Jul 1880 - 2 Mar 1937, husband of Mary Elizabeth, shares stone with Mary Elizabeth

Smith, Mary Elizabeth, 1 Mar 1881 - 2 Sep 1940, wife of Frederick I., shares stone with Frederick I.

Pictures:

Please name the pictures in all lower case letters. Use the initials of the first and middle names. Put last name first. When we match the picture with the names, it is easier for us to find them if last names are first. For example: smithfi.jpg.

Most servers will not take files with spaces or punctuation marks in them For example: Smith, F I.jpg would not be acceptable to the server where smithfi.jpg would.

If Fred and Mary share a stone, then name it with both names: smithfime.jpg

Please do not send just pictures. It is very difficult and very time consuming for us to go through each tombstone picture and try to read names and dates. Please put the written information in the email.

We will resize and crop all the pictures, if needed.

You don't have to alphabetize the list of names.

One last thing --- Please write the name of the cemetery and the county in the subject line of the email. You'd be surprised how many counties have the same names for their cemeteries!

Thanks for your cooperation!
