Is anyone interested in going to cemeteries within your County or zipcode and taking pictures of old grave sites(upon rquest) and posting the photo for the person requesting it?
I Thaught this was some scam at first, but it's not, it's all voluntary and there's no money involved. You just doing people from other states a favor and there's no obligation.

If you sign up, you receive requests for pictures of grave sites from cemeteries within your zipcode.
Request are e-mailed to you from other people around the country and will tell you which cemetery and which grave site.
Like I said,Even when you receive the request, your not obligated to except it. If you don't want to do it. delete it, you'll receive more later.

Find A Grave's Photo Request System is a network of volunteers, helping others freely. Please do not request any money for your photo volunteer service. Doing so violates the spirit of the volunteer system and is against Find A Grave policy. Repeated abuse of this policy will result in account suspension.

We don't ever want you to get email from Find A Grave that you don't wish to receive. If you would no longer like to receive photo request emails like this, just edit your Find A Grave contributor profile and uncheck the 'Email me with new photo requests in my area' checkbox. You can go directly to your contributor settings by following this link (you must be logged in to Find A Grave for this to work):

It's on the Michigan forum too.
This is available to every county in every state. When someone signs up, they get requests to take pictures from cemeteries in their hometown or county, nowhere else.

Cross posted?

The example: is from a request I received here in OK.
Is that what you mean?

I noticed you was a member on the Other-Topics forum.

When you sign up you give them the state your in and then from a list of counties in your state, you choose which county(s) you volunteer to check the cemetaries in. When someone requests a photo of a grave site in any of those cemeteries, the request is sent to you and anyone else who may have signed up for that county.
