Bio
I'm happy to transfer a memorial for someone not related to me to a proven direct family member of the memorialized person, ACCORDING TO THE GUIDELINES of this site. If you want a memorial transferred to you, please help me determine that you are a DIRECT relative by providing a paper trail or other helpful information that can help determine your DIRECT relationship to the person memorialized. The site defines "a direct relative within four generations" as including "your spouse, siblings, parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren."
DO NOT leave corrections in the comments with flowers posted on a memorial. I've recently found some of those that go back for years and apparently were not noticed by prior creators/managers of the memorials.
I've used this website for several years for research but only recently have started managing memorials and trying to fill photo requests. In my genealogy research, I've found so many graves, and even entire cemeteries, that seem forgotten. I just want to help preserve the memories of those who came before us.
My short surname list is Owens, Breeding, McFarlane, Jackson, Elswick, Smith, Powers, Presley, Stinson, Wilson, Stiltner - all in Appalachian areas of Virginia and Kentucky for the most part.
In addition to my family memorials and memorials from the areas where they lived, I also manage memorials in Yancey and Mitchell counties in North Carolina which is where I live.
