✿♥ My primary goal on Find-A-Grave is to find/create/maintain the memorials of friends and family, and to do genealogy/ancestry research that can connect people to their relatives and/or their lineage. If you feel I may be able to help you with your related ventures, please feel free to get in touch with me!

FYI -- If you have not heard back, please confirm that the feature, "Send me an email when I get a new message" is checked/enabled to ensure you're able to receive responses. The setting can be found under "Account", then go to "Notifications", and check the box(es) under "New Messages". ♥✿

✎ TRANSFER MEMORIALS » Memorials I've created (outside of those my partner and I are related to) can be transferred to you if requested, via the "Suggest Edits" link on that specific memorial's page; please confirm your relationship to the deceased per Find-A-Grave guidelines. For more info, please visit https://support.findagrave.com/s/article/Request-to-Manage .

✎ AVAILABILITY » I try to help with photo requests or virtual memorial entries, but please note that I can't guarantee all requests will be accepted/honored. Please be patient, as it takes time, effort, and mental clarity to do research, create virtual memorials, visit each grave, take photos while the cemetery is open and the weather is decent, etc. If you have questions (or answers) for me, I can be reached via the "Send Message" link on my profile.

✎ REQUESTING A PHOTO? » Before submitting your grave/headstone photo request, please contact the cemetery in question and obtain as much of the following info as possible: the person's maiden (and other) names as listed on the grave marker or death certificate; the cemetery name, address (and/or GPS coordinates); the death date (and birth date); and most importantly -- the plot#, section/row#, lot#, or grave#. The more info you can provide, the greater chance I'll have at taking care of your request. Thank you~

✎ MEMORIAL REQUESTS » I'd be honored to create a Find-a-Grave virtual memorial for your loved ones if you'd like! You'd be helping your family genealogist(s) and future generations to make those connections and learn their ancestry. I will need the following info from you: the person's name on the death certificate, birth date, death date, cemetery name and location (or if not buried then note if cremated, lost at sea etc), and any other verifiable info or photos you'd like to have included (obituary etc). You're welcome to include additional genealogical/family tree info, such as any maiden/married names they've held, what their spouse's names are, their children's names, maternal and paternal parent's names, etc. (For safety/privacy reasons, I highly recommend that you do not list living relatives' full names - just initials will do, or else limit your list to deceased relatives only.)

✎ ERRORS/CORRECTIONS » Errors, duplications, corrections or additional info for virtual memorials I manage can be requested via the "Suggest Edits" link on the memorial page in question.
