Hello List,
I have finally gotten some more things added to the website!
Austin Cox compiled a list of Burials for the 2003 year, for the Fountain Park Cemetery.
I took his list and used the S. S. Index and tried to fill in as many dates as possible.
Some of the burials that occurred after Sept. didn't have records available yet.
I want to Thank Austin for the list.

This page is linked to the White River township cemetery page and the Fountain Park
Cemetery History page.
I talked with the sexton from Fountain Park, and he said we could have his records for the
website. But they are in books and need to be transcribed. He has no way of copying them.
He did say that we could come in and make a list from his books.
I will not be able to do this myself, unfortunately I have to work the hours he has the
office open. So I am looking for a volunteer that lives close to the cemetery, that would
be willing to transcribe a list of burials. <G> I know everyone on the list would
really appreciate the records.
Venus Fillmore and Marion Vaughn has contributed a Starbuck/Simmons Bible
I have the photos of this Bible online. And I will be working on transcribing the records
from it and will have a link to them on this page. Some of the surnames mentioned are
Starbuck, Simmons, Brown and Alexander. Venus has established a genealogy and history
library in the town hall of Valley Head, AL. She is helping Marion work on her family
history. Her email is listed on the website if anyone wants to contact her.

There are a few scanned death records now online. If you have death records to contribute,
you can either scan them or transcribe them in an email to me and I will add them to the
site.

Billy J. Baker has been transcribing Probate Filings from the Union City Evening Times.
Keep checking back for updates. He has put alot of time into this project. And I want to
thank him for all his work on this. And all his work on the DCOWeb site. I included that
link also.

I am working on transcribing records for the Hopewell cemetery. Austin Cox let me have a
copy of his records. I am on page 14 of 41.<G> I will have them up on the site as
soon as I get them all entered. Austin also has written a paper about the Lincoln High
School. It will be added to the Schools page. Thank you Austin for all that you are
sharing with us.
Donald Peacock is working on getting me a list of all the burials in the Jericho cemetery.
I have started working on the index for this cemetery. It is rather large and will take
some time.
I hope everyone enjoys the updates. And as always if you have anything to add or find any
broken links please let me know. If you have any suggestions for things you would like to
see added , I would like to hear from you also.
Again Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the website!
