I started working on ancestry.com when my cousin got me addicted. Photos of graves of relatives all over the country and world were so helpful. When I did a photo request, I seemed to get it fulfilled within a week or less. I looked in Quincy and saw so many open requests I felt I had to pay back and pay forward all of the help others had given me. Hall cemetery is mostly veterans and a friend and I tried to get almost all of that one done for Memorial Day in 2017. Mount Wollaston is a HUGE cemetery and I'm doing a section whenever I get some time. If someone is looking for one there, please call the cemetery office and get a specific section and lot and any other info they will give you as they won't help FAG over the busy summer time. Only the new section which is O comes with a map that helps figure out the row, otherwise, it's like New England roads, winding and haphazard with no numbers. I will happily transfer any memorials to those of you who are related to any of the people I have entered.
Insight to doing this for several years: I originally focused on the gravestone itself which helps the geneologists looking strickly for info. I have been asked several times for help as I am in Mt. Wollaston a lot and find that a picture with a wider angle to accompany the close up, really helps someone get their bearings and actually FIND the grave, so I'm trying to add those pictures now.
Also, feel free to use any of my photos without asking permission, I am not copyrighting any nor am I on an ego trip to get credit for honoring those who have passed. I do this to help others.
