After a huge segue trip to Norway this summer that took me away from my original task for weeks, I am finally working on the photos again. My project had four steps:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Design a process for filing, digitizing, and publishing my pictures. I attended a couple of informative sessions offered by the Computer Interest Group of the Colorado Genealogical Society to learn ways to do this.<\/li>\n<li>Scan all my photos and place them in digital folders organized by state, cemetery, and name. Put the prints into an archival album.<\/li>\n<li>Copy all the cemetery marker images and store them as exhibits in my genealogy database, <em>The Master Genealogist.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Upload my images and build memorials on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.findagrave.com\">http:\/\/www.findagrave.com<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This week I began the fourth step. I uploaded all my Colorado photos and built memorials for Ruth Anna Hansen Reed Brown and Ralph Willard Odom, both buried at Boulder&#8217;s Green Mountain Cemetery. Someone else had already built memorials for my other family members in that cemetery, Dean Reed and the Towers&#8211;Hazel, Walter, and Josephine. Memorials for family members at Ft. Logan (Robert Lloyd Reed) and Fountain (Robert H. Reed) had already been created as well. I had earlier put up a memorial for Thomas and Henrietta Reed, buried in Ca\u00f1on City, right after I visited that cemetery a couple of years ago.<\/p>\n<p>Now I am moving ahead to my Illinois photos. My father took these many years ago at Ashmore, Enon, and Reed cemeteries in Coles County. Our family pioneered in Illinois in the 1820&#8217;s, so there are a lot of these photos, and they will take some time.<\/p>\n<p>I hope to finish uploading the photos and building memorials by the end of October. It feels good to know that whenever I visit another cemetery, I have a system in place for saving the images of the cemetery markers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the beginning of the year, I stated my goal of getting all my photos of cemetery markers under control.
