Bio

I have been doing my family’s genealogy for over 40 years and came upon this site a number of years ago. It has been a great help in my searches for connecting to our past history. I really enjoy helping others in finding their past history and I hope the pictures and memorials I add help others in their searches.

If possible Please help out your photo volunteers by obtaining the plot information from the cemetery and adding it to your request as well as to the FAG Memorial itself. Also if you note that you are requesting for both spouses, please submit a separate request for each spouse. Remember you are asking the volunteers to help you on their own time. Making it easier on them means they spend less time trying to gather/research the data in trying to find the grave locations, which in turn means they can get to the cemetery to fulfill your requests that much quicker.

“Genealogy begins as an interest,
Becomes a hobby,
Continues as a vocation,
Takes over as an obsession,
And in its last stages,
Is an incurable disease.”
