I have been doing genealogy for forty eight years. I find cemeteries a valuable resource tool to help extend the family tree. It's an odd feeling to stand at their gravesites. Once you have traced them and know so much about their lives, it's an odd feeling to stand at their final resting place. I also feel that it is important for our younger generations to have visual documentation to see so they can identify with who these generations were that went before them. Too many know so little about where they came from and the struggles the earlier generations had to make them possible today.
