PLEASE give the SOURCES supporting/verifying your suggested edits (preferably at the bottom of the bio section). A genealogy is only as reliable as the sources cited, and these sources are vital in resolving any differences of opinion or extrapolations made by different researchers. I won't accept an edit with no supporting sources.

POST TRANSFER REQUESTS IN MY MESSAGES. (I don't read my emails.)

TRANSFERS: Please feel free (and encouraged) to request transfers (for pretty much any reason, politely presented, regardless of 4-gen. status), as I am not related to any of the Reno memorials I have created. I do prefer you have a little history here. I won't see your request unless you post it here (rather than via the "Contact manager" link), but don't forget to include the memorial number(s). I'll also note that I am on FindAGrave much less often than I used to be, so it might still be quite a while before I get back to you.

FINDAGRAVE PHILOSOPHY: The longer I do this, the more I think findagrave is most useful by being an source of what isn't available elsewhere (i.e., an accurate reflection of what's on the gravestone and/or in the cemetery records in the absence of a marker), rather than ignoring/overriding that data to force the memorial to match other records. There are dozens of sites to build your tree that look at all the sources (including gravestones) and come to a conclusion. Even if something on the stone is demonstrably wrong, the gravestone as it exists is a data point. I will NOT "correct" an "error" that matches what is on a gravestone. FindAGrave is fundamentally meant to document what's on the marker (rather than what's in any number of other sources), as FindAGrave is the ONLY place to get that info. (Changing those fields but putting a note on the page that says what was on the gravestone is not particularly useful; many people never come directly to FindAGrave.)

BIO PROPER: Hi. I added my first memorials here in 2003 and then wandered off and did other things (and lost access to that account). The next time I noticed findagrave, digital cameras, increased storage capacities, spreadsheet uploads, and other advancements had transformed it from a spot to enter information on a few relatives to something more a research tool than a scrapbook.

RENO CEMETERIES: I took photos locally in Reno, Nevada, starting December 2017. My emphasis was on fully documenting local markers. Because many of the photos ended up being duplicates, I stopped cleaning/trimming the marker before photographing. I am no longer actively photographing.

EDITS: Thank you to those who submit edits to these memorials, both correcting and adding. As noted above, the information you want to add will be much more useful to future researchers if you provide the sources in which you found this information. (Reference to an Ancestry or FamilySearch tree that does not have an attached document or at least an explanatory note for each piece of info contained therein is NOT itself a source.) I have previously done research myself on each edit, but am no longer able to do so.

OBLIGATORY RANT: I find Ancestry (and other) trees that cite findagrave as a source for things that don't appear on the gravestone annoying. We add unsourced info to the memorial and then someone's tree cites the memorial to support the info: That's some frustrating circular logic.
