Historical Marker Database needs you


I found a really great Internet project that needs help from the citizens of Wake County. The Historical Marker Database has no entries for Wake County! There are 116 North Carolina Historical Markers listed from 23 counties. Brunswick County with 35 has the most N.C> markers listed. Johnston County has 15 markers - all dealing with the Battle of Bentonville!
I am sure someone out there in sight of this blog has a camera and, like me, an urge to correct this sad situation. If you do, read the site's Submission Guidelines, grab your camera, and document your favorite Wake County Historical Marker.
You folks in other places who may be reading this are allowed to participate too! Check out your county and see if it needs better recognition in this wonderful resource.
The websites motto is: ?Bite-Size Bits of Local, National, and Global History?
