I don't know how web pages are done but if you or any of your family is "savvy" might I suggest something like a cousin of mine has done. He has put our ancestor's civil war letters to his wife on-line and did a really nice job with the letters and pics and I think it makes a very nice tribute.

When I met him on-line he told me of his site and when I told a cousin I already knew, turns out she had more letters which he added to his site and now more early transcriptions have come to light which I'm typing over to him. one thing I found was when I scanned the old letters at high resolution, I could actually distinguish many letters and words where the ink had smudged that I could not distinguish looking at the letter itself. Besides the interesting reading about the war, many people mentioned in the letters are related to me and others with ancestors from the same county.

Just a thought.
