I have been researching my own roots for over 35 years. Having worked as a staff genealogist for DAR at headquarters in Washington DC for over eighteen, I understand the value of accurate findagrave entries and legible tombstone photos along with transcriptions of exact data from the stone. I have been a contributor through my work email and user name, and have decided to begin a personal account. I appreciate the effort invested by so many others. Now that I am retired, I hope to have time to add valuable information and photos from cemeteries found in my travels.
