Thanks, Don. I think I will contact Betsy at Rootsweb so that she can keep
an eye on the account for activity. It may be temporary, but this lack of
response is not good when the site solicits funds from an unwary public.
Does the OGS Web site have a similar listing of counties and their
cemeteries? The questions I get most often are of the nature "Is there a
--?-- Cemetery in your county?" Maybe a State Table of Links to counties
with lists of their cemeteries would be helpful???

After looking at the site, I sent some comments to the OGS Cemetery
Chair,
most of them negative. The OGS is aware of the site, and part of the reply
to my comments was, "You get the picture."
