Wow - what an amazing website. This project must have been HUGE! I did notice something that was incorrect though. This regards my great uncle, Harry P. Betts. His name is listed under Oak Hill Cemetery (2002) in Towanda, Bradford County. There is no birthdate listed and under date of death it says 1919. He is, in fact, alive and although I'm unsure of his year of birth I'd guess perhaps it's 1919 (April 10th) and it was just accidentally put in the wrong column. His stone is there but he is, thankfully, still alive.
 
I'm not sure if there will be an update to this list soon. I see an update was done last year. There are, sadly, 3 more Betts (one is Betts Diljak) to add to the list but I know that will take some time. My grandfather's stone was not in place when the last update was being done, my mother probably died during the update and my grandmother died after it was done.
 
Thank you for your time and efforts!
