Bio

I was always told by my father that I would never be able to find my grandfather's grave in Florida because it would be overrun by the vegetation there. Then one day I googled the name of James Thomas Nazworth and up popped this link to a place called findagrave.com. I screamed out to everyone, Oh my God I found my grandfather's tombstone on this website. Everyone in the office rushed over to check it out. It was quite a momentous occasion for me. I was so pleased and had only wished my dad could have lived to see it. It would have been bitter-sweet. You see, my grandfather was 70 when my dad was born (he had 2 or 3 more children after this)and James Thomas died when he my dad was 10. This legendary old man had fought in the civil war and sired many children, at least 19 I believe from two different wives. The second of which was my grandmother. Finding this site was so awesome and I have been hooked on it ever since. I hope to be more of a volunteer to find and photo graves for other people in the future as the sweet person who found this one for me. My circle of life has started to be complete. Thank you.
