I was a volunteer of the US GenWeb Tombstone Transcription site and previous project manager of the USGenWeb Ohio Tombstone Photo Project, http://www.usgwarchives.net/oh/tombpics/index.htm . Member of Licking Co., Knox Co., and Ohio Genealogical Society. Have thus far read and photo documented in excess of 140 Ohio cemeteries, in 18 different counties. Retired retailer in Newark, Ohio, and previous caretaker for a mid-sized private cemetery in Licking County. I moved my residence in 2011 to just northeast of Mount Vernon, Knox Co., Ohio. I plan to begin reading/transcribing Knox County cemeteries during the summer. Please visit my home page to view all the cemeteries I have read and photographed. Some of the surnames I research include: Sizelove, Siceloff, Zeisloff, Zeisloft, VanFossen, Murphy, Thornton, Mann, Stratton, Diehl, Shupe, Dillon, Philipponnat, Sexten, Guest, and many more.

My hopes are that more folks will help this cause by reading and submitting their transcriptions to this or similar groups, so that our ancestral loved ones will not be forgotten. I have been actively researching my family genealogy since 1972. I'm willing to transfer any tombstone that I posted as long as they are not closely related to me. I do share! Robert
