Cemetery Mapping Project

The Cemetery Mapping Project is an effort by the
students and faculty of Minerva Central School to
digitally document and archive each grave site in the
Town of Minerva.

This Project has been made possible, in large part, thanks
to a major equipment grant from

Hewlett Packard Technology for Teaching: http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/grants/us/programs/tech_teaching/index.html.

To begin searching the database, choose a cemetery from the selections on the left.

***Please note that several of the maps and databases are still under construction.***
