I finally finished canvassing the Daingerfield Cemetery yesterday. The graves are all posted on findagrave, if you want to take a look. There are now 1,937 graves listed. Of course, I haven't done them all by myself. There were about 500 graves listed when I started, and other people have posted probably a couple of dozen since, so I figure I've added about 1,400 of them.
I've also added a few memorials to Chapelwood Cemetery where Lonnie's folks are buried, Bethlehem Cemetery near my old house, and the Odd Fellows Cemetery where Brenda is buried. And some others, I think - Salty, Trevat, and East Prairie come to mind.
Next project? Maybe Bradfield Cemetery, which isn't too far from me. I also need to get back on the Panola County book I started. I want to rough it out and then go over the entries with Mama and D.B. because they knew so many of the people I'm putting in the book. So much to do - just wish I didn't have to work for a living so I'd have more time to invest in things I really want to do!
