The Mason County Genealogical Society (MCGS) has for the last two summers been working on a project at the Shelton Memorial Park comparing the cemetery database to the tombstone information, passing along corrections to the cemetery personnel to double check. Another part of the project has been to unearth old temporary cement markers that are now several inches under the grass, and taking photographs of the tombstones. In the future, these photos will be attached to the database information for that person.
