"Larry Sumpter's Database: Death and Cemetery Records"
The above seems to have been a project whereby folks sent in family information and Larry compiled and posted it.
I have tried to find a current email addy for Larry without success.
So... the files are "as is" and will not be updated or corrected.
Any email addies found in the files will not work, these records are over 15 years old.
