Bio

I have been doing family research for 40years. It is something that never ends. Often if I fulfill a photo request I will endeavour to also find the history of that person. Birth, death, marriage and newspaper articles where possible. I am particular about my photos. I will clean the headstone if needed and try my best to capture a clear and readable photo.I have many tricks to find information. Just ask.

The current project "Last Known Address."
1. I'm adding and standardising the burial locations to 8000+ Nowra cemetery records. Format eg Anglican Portion A, Row 07, Plot 27
This assists in searching for and photographing graves.
2. Verifying locations against council records and aerial photograghy.
3. Adding 'unmarked' to graves that have no headstone or noticeable markings. Graves with concrete surrounds or other identifiable markers will not get this.
4. Linking Spouses and Parents.
5. Added Familysearch reference numbers. (Only on records I manage)
6. Photograph all remaining plots and headstones. Requests completed as they come up.
