Although I now live in the Pacific Northwest, my relatives are buried (and some are still living) in Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois and (I suspect) Michigan. Some travelled many miles and some never lived more than 5 miles from their birthplace. Many of my ancestors' graves are not documented, but I hope they will be remembered. And, in our 'new age,' some have been cremated and their remains are scattered. My efforts at this website are to honor those who passed before me, and hope that memories of my ancestors--biological and adopted--will not fade as the names and epitaphs do on their gravestones.
