[or-roots] Oregon Gravestones Photo Project

[E V Barnes]

If One Googles to the Union Cemetery, Cedar
Mill, Was. Co. Oregon, you should find two
lists (1) Non alphabetic (2) an Alphatbetic ver.
Both have full name, headstone reading, and
site location of the grave.  There is is professional photographer in the 
area who may have a lot of the graves alread photographed.
