Microsoft Word documents describing the historical significance (plus records of the lives of the interred people) have been prepared for the 49 cemeteries that have been explored. These cemetery “Summary Reports”, plus the associated report for one of the closely related “off-site” cemeteries, comprise an aggregate of 1613 pages of text and graphics. Altogether, the 990 photographs and associated thousands of images of data that was digitally recorded for the project to date are stored in 175 computer folders containing 4,560 files consisting of 1,592 million bytes of disk space. This magnitude of data requires more than two totally full CD-ROMs to contain it, so the complete data file is now on a 3-CD set.
