You may use my Find A Grave photographs without asking, for any non-commercial purpose, including posting them on Ancestry.com. That's fine! That's their best possible use! I don't need any credit. (But please don't watermark or modify the photos and please don't put your name on them.)

I will gladly transfer the memorial records I have created to family members or close friends of the deceased -- just send me a note.

I will remove any memorial or photo that I added, upon request by a family member. Just send me a note.

For aesthetic reasons I prefer not to have death certificates, marriage licenses, obits, news clippings, and other documents added to F-A-G memorials as photos. (In my opinion they are better suited to other genealogy sites like Ancestry.com.) Even though some of these documents are permitted by F-A-G guidelines I think they detract from the dignity of the memorials. I prefer to see the information from those documents captured as plain text, with appropriate edits, in the bio section of the memorial.

So, instead of posting document images please send me the information you would like me to put into the bio section of the memorials. I will be glad to do it.
