Researching my family tree is my main pastime. I take an interest in anyone who has a link to my family - not just blood relatives!

When I started out, I had very little to work with - no living ancestors to give me information and clues, and very few photographs and documents of my own. I'm grateful to everyone who takes the time and trouble to create and maintain records on Find A Grave. This site has been a great help to me.

I would now like to share information that I've found out, hoping it may help others. I also enjoy linking up parents, children and spouses, so that families can be brought together on Find a Grave.

I submit suggested updates/biographical details where I feel I can fill in gaps to existing entries, as well as creating memorials myself. From time to time I visit the Local Studies Centre in my area and I hope, gradually, to add grave plot numbers to memorials, to help others locate the graves of family members, if they wish to visit.

Almost all the memorials I have created or now manage are for people who are related to me or at least have some connection to my family (eg through marriage).

If you feel that any of the information I have shared is inaccurate, please do not hesitate to contact me. I want to make sure the memorials are correct.

However, if you suggest an edit, PLEASE use the 'note' facility to explain where your information originates. This will help me to compare your suggestion with the information I already hold.

Thank you.
