Bio
Current pet peeve - screenshots. Please do not add screenshots, they look tacky. All the screenshots are doing is leaving blurry thumbnails. I wonder how many people have been redirected from Ancestry.com for a photo hint? They've hoped to find a photo of their loved ones grave, instead they are met with a screenshot and no grave. It's setting people up for disappointment. The website is called Find A Grave, not Find A Screenshot.
Please note that that unless the person has been deceased for approximately 80 + years, then I will not be adding or accepting obituaries to their profile. This is in consideration of living family members.
Requests to add lists of census or other data lists/BDM numbers to the bio section are respectfully denied. They belong on family tree websites. I only add military rankings if they died on active service. Thanks for your understanding.
You do not need to ask for permission to use my grave photos, so knock yourself out. Add them to your family tree, keep a copy of them, whatever floats your boat.
I also don't subscribe to the four generation rules of managing memorials, if you are a family member or friend then please request a transfer. I am related to roughly 500 memorials that I manage so the odds are in your favour if you don't belong to that group.
Any edits I send through to others have originated from Council Databases, BDM, Paperspast and sometimes an Individuals War Records.
