While digital clone sounds very impressive and high-tech, we at Chronicle (map.chronicle.rip) still see cemeteries who are struggling with paper ledgers and hand-drawn cemetery map, where sometimes there is no plaque installed or records went missing. We are working hard to have full stories in each of our online records of burial plots by encouraging cemetery administrator to put the stories of the deceased in our online records. In our next development, we will also allow the public to write an online obituaries to the Chronicle online grave of their loved ones (it will look like this https://map.chronicle.rip/beechworth-cemetery/plots/PB%20A%20533?from=map&zoom=23). If anyone wants to know what we do, please visit www.chronicle.rip we would love to connect!
