How to report a possible transcription error

These transcriptions may contain human errors.
As always, confirm these, as you would any other source material.

The following information is from my notes made during a visit to this
cemetery in the mid-1990's. At that time there was no intention on my part
to post this information and so I may have omitted some of the less salient
details. I am posting it now in the hope that it may be of help in someone's search.
