I have been an avid researcher of my family (Heimerman(n)-Menges-Mahnke-Poe) for over a decade. These surnames are my parents. My research has taken me to many cemeteries looking for headstone to place in Ancestry.com. I give permission to duplicate any pictures I upload to F.A.G. I do not keep photos after uploading. If there is a memorial you would like to manage, ask and I will transfer it to you. I add them so that they have a memorial to go with the photo I took. I don't spend my life on this website, but look at my emails daily. Happy Trails! ***P.S. Copied from another member's site which I concur with: "I think it is a real shame what Find A Grave has evolved into. What started (one of the reasons) as a noble way to link people with graves of loved ones they could never hope to see, and with the generations that had preceded them, has turned into a game for some. Memorials have turned into a kind of "trading card", a competition of who can own the most memorials and post the highest numbers. What has been forgotten by many is that these were people, loved in life and death, not a commodity to be traded or owned. With my apologies to those that have pure motives. I hope there are more of us than there are of them."***
