I am currently reviewing the "US—City and Business Directories, 1749–1990" & have now come across two separate batches of cemetery records (who is buried where/when), which volunteers have indexed.

The instructions say:

  • Index all residential lists, telephone directories, business directories, city directories, and other similar lists of names in the United States and Canada.
  • Mark all other images, including full pages of advertisements, county and city histories, lists of elected officials, tables of contents, maps, city and county government officials lists, colonial wills, biographies, military histories, solider lists, family histories, historical essays and voter and census records, in Step 1: Images as No, No Extractable Data.


I read this as the cemetery records should not be indexed within this project, is that correct?
