***If you send me a question or request in a message and your messages are turned off, I will not respond.
**If you would like a transfer just ask and follow the FG guidelines! I ask that you send the request in the memorial to make for easier transfer.
*For all that is good PLEASE RESEARCH your photo request! I see to many request for photos for cemeteries/churchyards/priory's that are defunct. If you take the time to do a simple search on the internet you can find a lot of use full information on many cemeteries/churchyards/priory's. Also take time to read the cemeteries/churchyard/priory's description (if there is one) it may tell you all you need to know before asking for a photo of your 23rd great grandma who was buried in a cemeteries/churchyard/priory that no longer exist!
Now, I enjoy researching mine and others family genealogy.
I like to document over seas cemeteries and old church burial records. I think everyone has a right to be remembered and hope that the little bit I can do will allow them to live on for generations to come. While my Latin and Old English is continuing to improve please understand mistakes can be made and I am more than happy to correct them!
When sending suggested corrections please use proper sentence structure, punctuation and capitalization.
I highly recommend doing research on a cemetery prior to just adding it so that you can input the correct information and location! Googlemaps is your friend and can be extremely useful in finding the coordinates for any cemetery many which are already marked on it!
A few suggestions:
When adding cemeteries it should be done in that area's language! Although there are exceptions to this. Find a Grave is world wide and Americanizing everything is diminishing those cultures, languages and people.
If you are translating old burial transcripts they many be written in Latin, which was the language of many churches. The names may also be written in short hand.
Example:
Eliza., Eliz. - Elizabeth
Thom., Thos. - Thomas
Gul. (latin for Gulielmus) - William
Saml. - Samuel
Rich. - Richard
Xtopher - Christopher
Jas. - James
