Finding an Online Canvass or List |
Once you know the name of a cemetery and the county it's in, the next step is finding any online canvasses or lists of burials. A few counties have direct links for individual cemeteries, but those are obvious when the search engine leads you to one of them. In most cases you must search the resources directly. OKGenWeb has an extensive and rapidly-growing collection of cemetery canvasses and lists of burials, which you can find through the OKGenWeb Cemeteries Site or in the OKGenWeb Archives. Many of the OKGenWeb county sites also include cemetery information. Use the clickable map to get to the county/counties you're interested in. (If you a new Coordinator, we have a special Help Section for matching contributions of cemetery data with mapped locations.) The Oklahoma Cemetery Mailing List is also accumulating canvasses, organized by county. Go to its Home Page for the latest information, and select the county or use its search engine to find a specific canvass. |
