I have been researching my family and my husbands now for thirteen years(I know, some of you have been doing it a whole lot longer). We have gone back to the 1700's.

We have been luckly enough to be able to travel to do our research. I've been to Georgia, Ohio, Indiana, Salt Lake City. I have met and researched with distant relatives. I have also had the opportunity to get some instruction from the very best when I first started.

I think Find a Grave is a fantastic site to be able to honor our ancesters. Doing the family research has really helped with doing their memorials. Plus it makes me feel like I am doing something for them.

Believe it or not I have a binder full of cemetery pictures from our research travels. I get teased a lot about that and the fact that I get really excited when I get a death certificate or an obituary in the mail.

When there is a photo request in my area I will do that. But I have not signed up as a volunteer.
