Bio

For people who are NOT aware, researching,
creating and photographing these memorials
for the deceased, is a slow and exhausting process
but, it is worthwhile.
I have created over 2,700 + memorials and
the main reason is, I would like to think that
someone, somewhere in this world, " might" be
looking for that lost relative and I helped
them to find that person.
That said, I DO check census records after creating
these memorials and try connecting folks that way.
Many times it is like a puzzle. Sometimes I solve it ,
sometimes I do not. *** If I find nothing on a
particular person, my memorial will say,
" NO OTHER INFO." The reason I have done this
is so I know that I did research that individual
and found nothing.
ANY EDITS I receive,I do try to go back and look
up the person thru census records,again and research
places online and I also check dates ( very important).
I WILL NOT APPROVE any edit where there is NO
proof of relationship and the reason is, I will not have
this information out there for all to see and it might
not be correct and " guessing" is not good enough.
We live in reality,not fantasy or speculation.

If any of you would like a memorial transferred,
let me know. I prefer that the transfer would be
to a relative /ancestor but, if I feel it is to put in
wrong information, I will not transfer.
