Bio and Links
Bio Photo I am a Salvation Army officer currently stationed at our Territorial Headquarters in West Nyack, NY.

I am orginally from Hamilton, Ohio with roots in Northeast Ohio (fathers family) and Central Kentucky (mothers family.)

I began researching my family tree around 1986 and since then have found numerous graves of ancestors in a number of places in Ohio as well as central Kentucky and Wisconsin.

I am please to be a part of this site where I can commemorate the lives of my ancestors as well as my siblings. I am one of 14 children (7 brothers, 5 sisters and 1 step sister). There are now only the 6 of my family (4 brothers, 1 sister and me.)

Names I am researching are: Adams, Aebi, Brunie, Ellis, Ellwood, Fankhauser, Gfeller, Lorius, Medley, Meece, Riley, Schenk, Wyss, Yennie. However, I follow any lead that takes me out on another branch of the family tree.

Also, since I am a Civil War Reeanctor I am drawn to Civil War graves and not only take photos of the grave but also do basic research to find out a little of the soldier to post as well to keep his memory alive.

Please feel free to email me directly with any questions, changes, etc. on any memorials I have created. Also, if you have a relationship to a memorial I've posted and would like to take it over I would be pleased to turn it over to you.

Thomas -
I saw you left a flag on this memorial of Hugo Schaefer in 2008. He is related to our family - did you have any further information about him?

THE "SPURLOCKs" HUSBAND & WIFE.
Hi Mr. Schenk,... :-) On both the husband & wife memorials, neither have their birh & death dates. I have them here listed so U may want to add them to their memorials. Robert D. Spurlock Sr. #21707267 Born: May 6, 1909 Died: June 6, 1999 BURIAL PLOT: Section 4, Lot 216, Grv #2. ~~~ WIFE: Lola May Spurlock #21707250 Born: December 28, 1910 Died: June 1, 1997 BURIAL PLOT: Section 4, Lot 216, Grv #1. ~~ U may want to type in Mr. Spurlocks memorial, his wife's name w/her birth & death years & that she preceded him in death. ~~ In Mrs. Spurlock's memorial, type in as Robert being her spouse, w/his birth & death years as well. I hope U find this information to be helpful w/good intentions. GOD Bless U & your family. ~ #28/1 Thur.,4-11-2013 6:17 PM EST.

Thanks for all the transfers. If you want me to transfer them back to you after I have made the edits I could do so, however, I would like to keep them if you don't mind.

Hello!
I am searching for my 4ggrandmother's and grandfather's grave. I just found out that they are buried in Litton Cemetery. Their names are Anna Drew and William Carpenter. I believe it says "Carpenter" on the top and then Anna and William. I would be very appreciative if you would do this! I am in Texas and cannot go look myself. Thank you so much!
