How to Volunteer!

If you own Cemetery Books or have personal cemetery surveys that you have done and would like to do look-ups, the easiest way to volunteer is to click on the word "Volunteer" on the Home Page and e-mail the information to Dennis Partridge.

The information needed is the name of the Cemetery Book, The County that it covers and your name and e-mail address.
If it is a personal survey that you have compiled, then we need the Name of the Cemetery, The county and your name and e-mail address.
If the personal survey is already online, then provide the URL (location) and we will seek permission to link to the survey.
If the survey is not online, you may submit it by e-mail to Dennis Partridge. You can use any of the following formats: Microsoft Word; Microsoft Access; Excel; Note Pad or Word Pad.
Before using other formats, please contact Dennis Partridge.

To Volunteer to do "Walk Through" Look-ups (where you go to the cemetery and copy the information on the tombstone or take pictures). Go to the Home page and click on the word "Volunteer". Send your name and e-mail address, the name of Cemetery, the county and that you will do 'walk through' look-ups.
When a person contacts you, it is between the two of you if you charge for your service and how much. Be sure to tell the person before you do the look-up. Most people are willing to pay a small fee for your gas and time, but it is best to make sure and agree on the fee ahead of time.

When a person Contacts you for a Look-up

Please send a message to the person within 24 hours of receiving the look-up request. Let them know that you got the message and an estimate of how long before you can do the look-up. Be sure to tell them if there is a fee and how much.

If Yo Can No Longer Do Look-ups

If you can no longer do look-ups or want to change the type of look-ups that you do, please notify Dennis Partridge. We would like to keep the list up to date without any broken links or out dated material.
