Family is important. They influenced your life; whether you knew them or not. Thank you to my 1st cousin Jerry Liedl for showing me this website.

WALKING THROUGH A CEMETERY….Is peaceful. Seeing art carvings on stones. Ages of people and wondering their stories. Once, as I was walking through an old cemetery for family I "heard a voice" say "please find my family. Tell them I am here. " Wow! No one was around. I looked down and saw single grave a young person. I took photo, wrote down name. Just a hunch. No other graves with surname in cemetery according to sexton. I researched the name. Fortunately, it was a census year. I wrote down names and started the tree. Later down the line I found a living person who directed me to the family historian. When I asked if the name was familiar, the answer was, "YES!". I explained my story. They cried. The family had been looking for generations. Story was the family was going west. The child, was ill so they stopped in a town. Child died and was buried. No one remembered what town or where. Just Ohio. I sent pictures of grave, house, church, and census (spelled wrong in census). You would think I would remember name, cemetery or something…. Guess my brained deleted info and filled it with another.

Funniest Story ever….
