Bio

Northern Virginia.
Photos: move in close so the inscription is as legible as possible esp. with the older markers.

In transcribing personal documents can't we please forgo, once and for all, the "race: white" entry? Let's give it a rest (as for scanned documents, it's there too, but less obtrusive).

a helpful note from Mrs Fenton # 47404005:
So many people have added obituaries to memorials that I manage, I was concerned and contacted the administrators and asked them if it was alright to add these either in the bio area or the photo area.
This was their response
Greetings...
Since the move to Ancestry and the new website, newspaper obituaries, death certificates and other scanned documentation is allowed. We encourage members to move the images down to the bottom of the photo display [my preference: obits #2 category "family" just below a closeup marker photo; death certs. category: "other" lowest priority] so that they are not the first thing you see when viewing a memorial page.
Thank you,
