My interest in find a grave began in 2007. Helping my wife research her ancestors, we visited the Runge Cemetery in Runge, Texas. Initially the trip was to find and photograph her kinfolk's headstones. Then it turned into surveying and photographing the whole cemetery. Upon completion of our first effort, we began working most of the cemeteries in Atascosa, DeWitt, Karnes, and Wilson counties (Texas) and selected cemeteries in Bexar, Goliad and Bandera counties.

My wife, Mary Ann, passed away in July 2023. Her memorial is #256540997. She was always very supportive of my efforts on find a grave. She took every step I did, photographed thousands of tombstones and deserves much of the credit for the memorials that I created.

Though I no longer visit cemeteries, I am still active submitting suggestions, adding information, and making family links where possible.

My primary interest: Beckham, Bynum. Cornelius, Coolidge, Couch, Dunn, Hallmark, Huggins, Locke, Patrick, Porter and Seidel families.
