I have been working on my family tree for almost thirty years and love the Find A Grave website.

After taking a break from the site for a few years to concentrate on my family, I am back to the hobby that I love so much.

Please use the Suggest Edit feature on memorials to send corrections, additional information or transfer requests. Please state your relationship for any transfer requests.

I can add links in the bio for siblings if the parents location is unknown. Use the Suggest Other Correction feature and include the name and memorial number you would like added to the bio.

Please do not send Census records as they are riddled with errors.

Please be patient. It may take some time to make additions/correction/transfers especially during the nice weather.

The Find a Grave guidelines for Transfer Requests is as follows:

Transfer requests should be for direct relatives within four generations, this would be your siblings, parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents. Keep in mind that the original contributor may also be related to the memorial and may not want to make the transfer. You may certainly request the transfer of memorials beyond the four generations, but the original contributor may choose not to transfer (the original contributor should make any corrections and add any additional information you have for that memorial, such as links to parents and spouses). Bulk surname requests should not be made.

Also, the goal is not to "own" every memorial of those to whom you are related. The ultimate goal should be to have meaningful, accurate memorials that honor those who have passed away, regardless of who created the memorial or who maintains it.
