I first learned about FindaGrave from Mark Weitzel when one of my Eagle scout sons did his Eagle project at Chestnut Hill Cemetery to map the military graves for Portville American Legion Post 814. (These are the maps that the Legion and the Boy Scouts use to place flags for Memorial Day.) Since then, I have become interested in completing work in the nearby cemeteries to assist people with geneology. Mark has now entrusted to me the care of many of the memorials that he created over the years.

I also a debt of gratitude to other FindaGrave contributors who have helped me over the years as I was learning, including USSAaronWardDaughter, Kathy, Zoe Tom, and the late Ruth Wicks. Thank you for your assistance! Thank you also to Firedome for entrusting me with your many memorials.

Please note: You are welcome to use any photograph that I post to FindaGrave for any non-commercial purpose. To connect people with their families is the reason that I spend countless hours photographing cemeteries, posting pictures, creating memorials, and suggesting edits to those already created.

If any of the memorials that I created are special people for you, I will be glad to accept edits or transfer management to you. Just send me a message using the Suggest Edits tab to make the request. Most of the memorials I have created are not people who are known to me, but simply people who are interred in a local cemetery or related to someone that I am trying to connect with family in FindaGrave.

****If you volunteer on this website and decide you no longer want to maintain the records, please transfer your records to someone who has an active account and is willing to take over the records. I am one of many willing to take over records. This really will help reduce duplicates. It would also be a good idea to leave someone instructions on how to make these transfers should you go inactive without warning.***** Thank You (Borrowed from another FindaGrave Contributor)
