I started working on my famliy tree in 1974. I think pulling teeth is easier than getting relatives to let loose with any information. You really have to start them talking and get them to slip up. If you ask a direct question for too much information you get nothing. Take your time and ask for just a bit here and there and you might have better luck.

I started photographing headstones for reference. Then I happened upon findagrave and decided to help the cause. While living in New Jersey, I made several trips to Suffern New York and photographed all the stones in three cemeteries near Rockland Community College, back in 2006 just before moving out of the area. In 2010 I started uploading the data and have finished.

I have a large collection of photos from three Boise locations to upload some day.

Please do ask me to transfer a record if you are related to the person(s). Link to any record or use photos as per the Terms of Service. These are for you, not for me.
