I am a genealogist, and also the Town of Fine Historian (St. Lawrence County, New York). Until mid-2024, I had also served as the Clifton Town Historian (in Cranberry Lake). As part of my duties, I research locally well-known and/or prominent families, and prepare genealogy charts for those families.

I completely mapped, transcribed, and photographed the Benson Mines Cemetery, located in the Town of Clifton, St. Lawrence County, New York.

As part of my own personal family history, I also completely mapped, photographed, and transcribed the Peters Creek Baptist Church Cemetery at Library, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania; the Peters Creek Christian Church Cemetery (also known as the "Campbellite Cemetery") at Washington County, Pennsylvania; and the Blackmore Family Cemetery, also in Washington County, Pennsylvania. These three Pennsylvania cemeteries are now on Find-A-Grave, although my original work was done in the 1980's. Stones I photographed then may be completely illegible now. Ask me!
