Bio

I am very new to this part of my Ancestral quest. Although I have been using Find A Grave for many years, I only joined as a volunteer about a year ago. I plan on visiting cemeteries for my family history when ever I can (I don't live local to my family any more) and I do plan on contributing photos of local cemeteries soon. I am going to start making memorials for my family that I cannot find on here. I hope to help those looking for their ancestors, and also to preserve and document local grave-sites. I have been doing a lot of reading and it appears that so many stones are deteriorating rapidly, & natural or man made catastrophes are endangering some cemeteries (the cemetery in India where my great grandmother was buried, was swept away, and destroyed by floods) . It is vital that we preserve this information for future generations.

If I have maintenance of a memorial that is related to you and you wish to manage it, please just ask, and I will transfer to you. I believe they belong with family and I am very appreciative when someone transfers my family to me.

If you have any questions of me, just ask!
