I am particularly thankful for Find A Grave, as a fellow French contributor who researched thousands of French and Belgian immigrants to the USA solved my Belgian brick wall by accessing and sharing my grandfather's Belgian birth certificate.

My great grandmother used her mother's maiden name instead of her own after she immigrated, which made finding her parents impossible. Were it not for Jean Luc Coubronne, I would have had to hire a Belgian genealogist.

Find a Grave is such a valuable resource to research and preserve the memories of families—a big shout out to all contributors who have taken the time and effort to both research and take/post photos and to link memorials for future generations, especially photos of the older stones to which time has not been kind. Your early work has been crucial to preserving names and dates.
