We have a new Cemetery database at ECGS

A new Cemetery Database is available in our room that contains all of the information included in the reading.  Readings have been done by many people over the years and each cemetery reading contains different information.  The vast majority of them include the name, date of birth and date of death.  Many include some special information such as what is printed on the headstone.  Some include even more information, such as spouse and parents.

This database can be searched by cemetery, then listed by several different sort orders such as name, Section-Lot, etc.  And, it can be searched by name.  The most up-to-date information we have for cemeteries is included in this database and is separate from our Index System.
