Tomorrow is the day Find A Grave has asked volunteers to photograph headstones at local cemeteries or fulfill photo requests from its site.
Since I can't be out in the field photographing, I'm going to be participating from home in my own way: By going through my family tree, person by person, and adding everyone to Find A Grave--as well as by linking family members according to relationships. I want to honor their memories and also make it easier for cousins and family researchers to figure out who's who.
Here, for example, is the memorial page I set up for my mother, showing relationship links to her parents on Find A Grave.
The more links, the more opportunities to be found by genealogists and cousins!

ReplyDeleteAnna, thanks for reading and commenting! Good luck with your Find A Grave postings and linkings! I still have dozens of ancestors to link, but at least I've made a good start.
