I'm relatively new to findagrave and came across it while researching my family history. It's been an amazing tool and in a very short time I've learned so much I never knew about my family.
At least for now my main interest is in tracing my family members and using FAG to create a monument to their history.

My thanks and apologies to any I may offend in my efforts. In my time here I've quickly discovered that there are differing opinions and interpretations out there about FAG Guidelines and Policies, and some people feel very strongly about their interpretations.

It seems to me that there are two main kinds of FAG users; those who thrive on adding as many memorials as possible but often with only the most basic information about name, birth and death date, and those who just want to improve existing memorials by linking family member's memorials together, adding pictures, bios, etc. I've seen some animosity between the two groups.
I'm obviously of the latter sort, but my genuine thanks go to those in the former group as they are the ones who've supplied the clay that the latter group uses to build their monuments.

My Great Grandparent family names are; Riehl/Stampfli, Hendrix/Coats, Jenkins/Hart, and Kelley/Richards.
