I also notice that not all cemeteries are listed. In small print there is a notice that the cemetery names & locations were obtained from USGS or NationalAtlas.gov. I notice that quite a few church cemeteries are missing, including some from the 1800's.
My final regret is that the township names were not included. Yes, I know how to read a location from the Tier/Range/Section label, but my mind works better at remembering township names, and local news will often reference township locations.
There is little in this book that cannot be obtained online or from a plat book, including the neighbors, which this book makes much fuss about being useful for. I have found better neighbor information in plat books from 1873, 1890, 1906, etc, and have sometimes made my own spreadsheets of indices for townships relevant to my research. However, I must admit that having everything typed out is much easier than trying to read the handwriting on some old patents, or the small & abbreviated print on plat books. ( )
