In the course of visiting cemeteries to document my own family tree, I've discovered that I can't resist the opportunity to photograph the headstones of the neighbors and friends that have joined them in life's final, eternal, graveyard shift.

Occasionally the desire to know more about my ancestors' horizontal colleagues has led me to research their history and supplement the information provided on their headstones. If you find the photos and information helpful (or in need of revision) please let me know. The feedback is appreciated, and helps me to rationalize the time I've invested in this pursuit. :)
