INPCRP County Coordinators Information

Who can be a INPCRP County
Coordinator?
Answer:
A good County Coordinator for this project should live in, or at least
near, the county they choose to adopt.
County Coordinator Responsibilities
As a County coordinator you are not responsible for personally conducting
every aspect of each cemetery project. You should build a group to help
this process. Here is the list of what you should strive to accept:
-
Have attended the restoration workshops put on annually Spring and Fall. (See the INPCRP front page for
current workshops & register soon.
-
Locate each cemetery in your County. Using the State
Burial Registry, record & GPS each site.
-
Learn the Indiana Laws
pertaining to Pioneer Cemeteries. (pdf)
-
Maintain your County INPCRP page according to the guidelines in the section
below.
-
Subscribing to the INPCRP-L mail list.
-
Promoting the local INPCRP efforts through local media and organizations.
-
Actively seeking volunteers for the cemetery projects. County Coordinators need to be willing to actively promote this project
on a local level and recruit volunteers and volunteer organization to handle
the labor intensive phases of each cemetery project.
-
Ensuring that each volunteer or volunteer organization is properly recognized
for their efforts.
-
Providing a copy of the
INPCRP guidelines, instructions, and survey forms
to each Cemetery Project Coordinator. Or share these links.
-
Helping the State Coordinator keep information as accurate and up-to-date
as possible. (This basically means: tell me when I make a mistake,
please) Also server changes or email changes.
The following minimum requirements
must be met by each county page to be included in the INPCRP:
-
Each Indiana INPCRP county site will consist of at
least one county home page, one index page, and one project page per
cemetery project. (The index may be included on the home page).
-
Each Indiana INPCRP county page will prominently display
the new INPCRP logo graphic at the top of the page. It should be
"large", but not overwhelming in relation to the rest of the page.
-
Each INPCRP county home page must identify the name
of the county for which it is posted.
-
Each INPCRP county home page must display the project
introduction paragraph.
-
Each INPCRP county home page must provide hyper links
to the county coordinator's e-mail address and the State coordinator's
e-mail address.
-
Each INPCRP county page, both the home page and each
secondary page, must contain a copyright notice similar to that on the
sample pages.
-
Each INPCRP county home page must contain a list of
volunteers and volunteer organizations or a link to a secondary page containing
those names. The volunteer list should indicate the name of the individual
or organization and the cemetery project to which they contributed.
-
Each INPCRP county home page must contain a link to
the INPCRP Home page at https://sites.rootsweb.com/~inpcrp/.
-
Each project page must identify one and only one
project cemetery.
-
Each project page must identify any permits or permission
obtained to carry out work at the project cemetery.
-
When possible, it is desirable for each project page
to include photographs of the project cemetery before, during and after
work.
-
A really good idea after all the work that has bee done on a project, is
to share it in a book. Make a complete listing of all your findings and burials
on that project. Place it in the local and state libraries for others to
find. Local libraries,
Ind. State
Genealogy Division, and Fort
Wayne Genealogy Division.
