Project Instructions
1. Copy and paste the code below into a sandbox.

2. Replace COUNTY NAME with the name of the county and STATE NAME with the name of the state. Click Save. 3. Check each link in the table on the county page on the wiki. Click each one. Anything that no longer provides cemetery information or is a bad link can be skipped. Anything that still links to cemetery information can be moved to the table in your sandbox. Links for Find A Grave and BillionGraves must link to the county pages on those sites. 4. Click save and double-check your work. 5. You will add additional resources, as listed below. If any are already in the current table, they can be skipped.
