"Show me your cemeteries and I will tell you what kind of people you have." - Benjamin Franklin.

I turned off my msgs on my profile. Please send all edits thru the memorials.

I've taken over a large number of memorials from a few inactive and deceased contributors. I'm trying to work through them to update them and add info but it will take a while. I welcome any edits and bio suggestions that you wish to send.

If requested to adjust inscription spacing, it will be declined and left as is. Sorry.

If you are reading this because you think that edits aren't being done in a timely manner, please be patient. Yes, I'm still an active member. We as managers have twenty (20) days to accept or not accept each suggestion.

I do not accept subtraction DOB's

A "Veteran" - whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve- is someone who, at one point in his/her life, wrote a blank check made payable to " The United States of America" for an amount of "up to, and including his/her life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today, who no longer understand that fact. That is why I place their rank on their memorial. Borrowed from another FAG manager

From another Graver:
I recently contacted Management about the explosion of unwanted records and other photos that do not belong on memorials. This was their response:

"The photos section of a memorial page is only to be used for photos of the deceased and photos of their grave."

"The photo area is ONLY to be used for photos of the person, their grave, their family, their house, etc. A scan of your grandmother's manuscript would be perfectly acceptable in the photo area, because it is an image that is personally attached to the deceased."

I will not transfer any memorials if relationship is not listed. If it is not listed in the request, I will just ignore it.

Simply having someone in your family tree is not grounds for a management transfer request. With hundreds of thousands of contributors, we have many overlapping family trees and it would be impossible for all contributors to manage their entire tree. (Borrowed from another Findagrave member)

No bulk surname requests for transfers. I'm sorry, but someone who died 100+ years ago could be related to many people. I prefer you add the posting under the virtual cemetery feature at Find A Grave. There is also a "link" option to link relatives.
