Deb,
I think we can be of help. When my volunteers cut out the newspaper
obituaries for our family files they can make a hand-written or computer
list for you. I don't think this would take much extra time. As I
understand from your request, you will not need Mt. Hope, it this correct?

Subject: [!! SPAM] [INMIAMI] I could use some help
I am looking for volunteers who would be willing to watch the newspapers and
send me a list of burials in Miami County Cemeteries. I would not expect one
person to do all of them.
Mt. Hope already sends me regular updates, so it is covered. I am thinking
perhaps a volunteer would cover one township or a particular active
cemetery.

This is also a great time of year to get out and take cemetery photos. If
you
would like to adopt a cemetery that has not been photographed, please refer
to
the link above for those that need to be photographed.
The Peru Tribune no longer has obituaries online free of charge, so if you
subscribe to the newspaper either paper version or online version, that
would be
helpful.
Also, the Pharos Tribune -
http://pharostribune.com/ and the Kokomo
Tribune -
http://kokomotribune.com/ often carry obits for Miami County
people,
esp. those in the outlying areas.
What I will need is Name of Cemetery, Full Name of Deceased, birthdate (when
available), deathdate. The report can be done at the end of each month,
every
other month or quarterly. That is up to the volunteer.
This is a huge job without help, but if I could get some reliable
volunteers,
my job would be so much easier. Thanks for your consideration
