New site for Canadian Headstone Photos
« on: Saturday 11 July 09 10:37 BST (UK) »
Hello All

This is a new web-site, which is very user friendly. People can up-load and post their own Headstone Photographs, and all Provinces are available. The mission of this project is to capture digital images of the headstones of our ancestors. As decades pass -- many stones are becoming harder, if not impossible, to read the inscriptions, they originally contained.

Headstones are indexed by province or territory; then county, region, and other geographic divisions which apply to the province or territory; and finally by cemetery.

We are currently seeking volunteers to help take and upload photos for many areas of Canada. We also require volunteers to assist the webmaster, by acting as coordinators. If you have an interest in volunteering for this rewarding part-time activity, please contact us via the on-line form, found here

http://canadianheadstones.com/on/contact_us.php

At The Canadian Headstone Photos Project, we also have links to the Counties of Tyrone and Fermanagh, and many of the States in the US, as well.

Thank you and happy Hunting :D
