Eagle Scout Project - Grave Indexing
Description
For my Eagle Scout project, I helped St. Mary's church in England record gravestone information. We were able to create paper and digital records (with pictures) for over 500 graves which had previously been unrecorded. This information was published online to become searchable for those performing family history work.
