The file I just sent you (Now shown on this website page) is a complete
reading of all stones as of this afternoon, when my daughters and I went
to the cemetery and collected info from every stone. In the
old file, there are mispellings, many missing stones.
Also, the new inventory includes all of the stones placed between 1960 and
2001.
