Bio

I began contributing to Find a Grave by fulfilling photo requests for the cemetery at my family's church. On a recent trip to Scotland, we were able to find the gravestone of one of my husband's possible ancestors through the use of GPS records of the cemetery. Since that trip, I have begun to work my way through my family's church cemetery, mainly to add GPS and location information. I am surprised how some of the gravestones have deteriorated since the original photos were taken. I hope that by adding GPS and location information I can help others find markers that are becoming illegible over time.
I appreciate suggestions for updates on the memorials I am managing however, since I am not a genealogist and most of my volunteer time is spent in the cemetery, I am hesitant to accept updates without documentation. Please feel free to attach such documentation to the memorial or to your request when submitting a change or addition.
Thank you
