More than 100 records have been added to the Gravestone Photo Project at http://gravestones.earlyMaine.org in the past week, and that brings our total count up past 4,400
Thanks so much to everyone that has taken the time to add one or a hundred records to the database. This is by far the most popular part of the earlyMaine.org site and I'm excited every spring when the photos start coming in again.
Thank you to all the volunteers who haveuploaded their photos and to all the visitors who continue to make this project worth while!
