A while back, there were discussions about a project that was to collect
cemetery research by individual genealogists, and then make the data
available across the 'net.
That discussion proposal was picked up by a volunteer group and is now in
place with an active list-server, a searchable database and a web site!
The name of this free service is "Cemetery Listing Association", or "CLA"
for short. Early testing has just been completed. You are encouraged to
visit the web site and/or join the listserve. Your comments are
requested.
The addresses are as follows:
Web site: http://mininet.smu.edu/cla
Listserv: listserv@mininet.smu.edu
To subscribe, put the words "subscribe CLA-L" (without the quotation
marks) followed by your name all on one line in the text portion of an
e-mail message. Send this message to the above address. An example of a
valid subscribe command is:
subscribe CLA-L john doe
E-mail contact: ForEpitaphs@aol.com
CONTENTS
The CLA database contains submissions and publicly posted data. Contents
include: name of deceased; date of death and cemetery. It may also
include:
date of birth and/or marriage; name of spouse(s), cemetery, epitaph;
location of burial ground and grave.
If you would like to join us, subscribe to the listserv or e-mail to the
address above. Either way, feel free to check out our web site and let us
know what you think!
Thank You!
