I am a retired librarian interested in history, genealogy and connecting families with their ancestors.
I enjoy taking photographs of the graves and try to decipher any epitaphs that are deteriorating on the gravestones so that they can be preserved for posterity.
I see Find a Grave as a wonderful research tool that helps families connect with the past, local history to be preserved and even migration patterns being mapped throughout the country -- and it's just plain fun to go graving!!
