 *Funeral home records questionnaire
 **Lois asked Larkin funeral home about records and it sounded like they only have about what would be on a death certificate. (I think James told us that in one of the meetings)
-**We have decided to check with a few more, but use the following strategy: 1) check the online death certificates
+**We have decided to check with a few more, but use the following strategy:
-*[[Beaver County, Utah#Neighboring_counties|Neighboring counties]]
+***learn the names of early funeral homes/directors from the online death certificates for a county;
-**Joy has started experimenting with the clickable maps. Her husband, Bo, has finished proofreading and updated links to be sure every neighboring county is listed.
+***contact funeral homes of that area to see if they know where those records are AND how early the records exist for the funeral home contacted. In the process, what do they have for early records, such as programs, obituaries, names of participants, pall bearers, etc.
-*Results of poll re: order of records to suggest for finding birth information. James started the update to [[How to Find Birth Information in Utah]].
+*Birth Task Description: Doing in two segments:
-*Start templates and task page for Births - Wilma made great progress
+**Lois has agreed to do the birth sections before civil birth records were created. That task description is 99% complete.
-*Start on the State Archives project - Liz reworded info to experimental county, will do this for all counties.
+**Liz will do the 1898-present segment. She has already checked all the microfilms (except Washington County) and has gathered all the info from the State Archives. As soon as Wilma finishes the templates (today we hope), Liz will have this done quickly. (She isn't called "Liz the whiz" for nothing.)
+From previous meetings:
+*Neighboring counties clickable maps: ongoing
+*[[How to Find Birth Information in Utah]]: to discuss next week (really full agenda today)
 *[[Utah Record Selection Table]] needs updating. (Just keeping on the list until done)
 *Get documentation of [[Utah Vital Records#Birth_Records|Delayed Birth Registration]] - dates started, etc. (Says 1941 on state page, but no citation.) - Pat
