US, Minnesota—Veterans Grave Registrations, 1930–1975 [Part B][M31P-F5J]

Do I use only the first page to index all of the information when the location and cemetery info is on the second sheet which doesn't have the name, etc on it?

How do I mark the second sheet if I put all of the information on the first page?


Thanks

    If the only information that is on the second entry is Burial Place and Cemetery, you will mark this as No, No Extractable Data and used the place and cemetery on entry 1.

    If you read the Project Instructions, under What to Index it shows samples of the two-page instructions.

    If you don't know how to index a two-page entry, look under General Indexing Guidelines, What to Do When Records Span 2 Images or View Additional Images

    Nancy Bradshaw. I have tried what it says in the GIC, but I have found some 2nd pages or pre-first pages that do not match the name on the full record. I stopped doing these because of that. I wish the examples would show these difficult points and not the simple straightforward record.

    @Nancy Bradshaw Hi, adding to @erutherford When page 1 (the front) of the Grave Registration is on your right, the matching page 2 (the back side) will be +1 in the reference pages. Go ahead and use the Burial place and Cemetery Name on the +1 reference. When page 2 (the back side) is on your left, the matching page 1 will be -1 in the reference pages -- this record has been or will be indexed by another indexer. Mark this image (the left-hand image in your batch) NNED. I hope I haven't thoroughly confused you with my explanation. Give it a try and email me if you like, I'm on Utah time and I check community discussions every day 😎
