Everyone is more than welcome to use my photos for the continuation of genealogy research. I would only ask that if I have added my name or other information to them, please do not crop it out as I would like other researchers to be able to find and contact me. It has nothing to do with recognition and is strictly for facilitating collaboration and connection with new cousins and other researchers when these photos are downloaded and then uploaded to sites other than Find A Grave, without photo credit.
For those who don't like information overlayed on the photos: It is to help prevent people who intentionally download photos and attach them to incorrect people. Or sometimes unintentionally. Overlay information and watermarks help to prevent mistakes and misuse. And lastly, I did not take these photos for Find A Grave. But I am sharing them for everyone's use. I took all of the photos first and foremost for my own personal use and to attach to my personal family trees. All of my photos have overlays on them and I generally do not keep duplicates of the unedited images. So if you are going to request they be removed, just remember, many in Italy will likely never be replaced due to their remote location. A photo with an overlay is better than no photo at all.
Thank you.
