Bio

Our interest in Find A Grave is not based on the volume of memorials we manage, but rather on our family-related ancestors, which may then lead to extended family and their friends, helping to build the ancestral tree on both sides of our family.

Our primary focus for the memorials we manage is to make them as complete and informative as possible by including photographs, linking family members, and providing as much biographical information as is available. We hope that the research, family connections, and collected information will serve as a valuable resource for current and future generations and others who may be directly or indirectly connected to these individuals.


Most importantly, however, our goal is to honor, respect, and never forget those who came before us by preserving their lineage, history, and heritage whenever possible.


Note: Regarding entries in the Foster Cemetery, Wentworth, NH: Wentworth experienced a devastating fire on March 2, 1890, which destroyed the Eaton & Davis Store building. Most of the irreplaceable Wentworth town records and books were stored exclusively in that building and were lost in the fire. This occurred before Wentworth began submitting vital records to the State of New Hampshire in the 1920s, after which those records were incorporated into online genealogy databases.

As a result, some critical information (such as birth dates) may need to be estimated based on gravestone inscriptions and/or locally preserved family historical records, as these may be the only surviving sources for some of the older vital records originating in Wentworth, New Hampshire.
