My brother and I have taken over the family genealogy research started in the late 1970's by our parents Pastor Howard LeRoy and Verda Marie Olson STEWART. Their time consuming pre-internet research efforts resulted in 12 family genealogy books and updates for our 8 great-grandparents: John Watson STEWART and his wife Sarah Lenora CURTIS, Nels Gulbrandson LILLEVOLD and his wife Mina "Minnie" NORDMARKEN, Lawrence Peter "L.P." OLSON and his wife Barbara Augusta "Gustie" RAMSEY and Alonzo LOVELL and his wife Anna Bertha "Bertha" BRAMER.

In addition to my brother and I recently taking photos of an entire cemetery near our Mother's hometown of Melrose, WI, I have also begun taking photos for nearby Findagrave requests. We regularly utilize Ancestry, Family Tree Maker and Family Search in our efforts to fill in missing information and cite sources and have found Findagrave to be a great resource to aid in our ongoing genealogy research.

Our Findagrave goals are to ensure the highest level of accuracy and completeness for our ancestors by adding family member links, nicknames, correct spelling mistakes and inserting bios and/or obits, etc., much of which is currently missing. I sincerely appreciate your understanding of my requests to take over management of numerous family memorials as we have so much information that isn't presently on Findagrave. It is our fervent hope that we do our part to tell our ancestors' stories for future generations to see 'from whence they came'.

Respectfully,
