I found Find A Grave while looking up the grave of a famous person on a computer terminal where I used to work, in early 2004. I continued to look up other graves, & eventually was hooked.
Every Cemetery is hallowed grounds.
They are an important key to our past.
Please teach Your children that cemeteries & grave markers are a specific location where human beings are permanetely buried, and that they are to be respected, and not damaged or destroyed in any way, shape, or form.
Cemeteries are very educational, they are very serene, & can be one of the safest places to be in. I have had many hobbies throughout my life;
But "Graving" has given me a very rewarding,
inner peace that I will never find elsewhere. | |

I also just noticed that the doors and window on my photo are open and yours are closed! I had been inside and photographed the interior space as well! | | | CousinJudy
| RE: LeMoyne Crematory
Hi Sandman,
I took a look at the main page for the Lemoyne Crematorium. I did add that record in 2007 and that photo would also be mine. If you take a look at my Crematorium page photo and compare it with the one on your record for Dr. Francis Julius Lemoyne you will see that they are very different photos. Mine is a closer photo with different shadows. Notice the sun shining on the front of the building. Your photos is dark on the front with the sun shining on the left side and roof only. The tombstone isn't even aligned with the right doorway in the same way that mine is, which shows that the photo was taken from a different angle.
This is a very prominent building with lots of folks photographing it. Please be very certain about something like this before publicly accusing someone of using your work. I expect you will issue an equally public apology.

| RE: LeMoyne Crematory
Hi Sandman, I will check on this. I haven't added anything to find-a-grave in quite awhile so I don't remember posting for LeMoyne Crematory though I would have used my own photo. My 4th great grandfather, John Leet Dye built the crematory for Dr. LeMoyne. I have been there and taken several photos. I am a photographer too and am sensitive to giving and getting credit where it is due. Again, let me check this out and I will get back to you.

Hi Sandman,
A couple if years ago I requested photos of my GGGGrandparents headstones John and Mary Dorrycott. You let me know there was no stone for them. Well the stone is now there and I was wondering if you would be so kind to photograph it for me. I've kept your name handy just for this'll purpose. Please let me know and God bless you!

Hi
I was wondering if you knew who Harold's parents were? Thank you AngieAdded by Angie on Aug 05, 2012 12:14 AM | | | Skolyak-Homer Family Tree

Hi Sandman. Would you mind transferring the Skolyak's to me? (23655612 and 23655613)We have a family puzzle going on about what George Skolyak (Joseph's dad - 23655612) changed our name from. I want to change the memorial and add a bunch of information so hopefully someone who knows the answer to the mystery will contact us. | | | Amanda Bowser Ellinger
 | Morton Family Lot cemetery
Hello,
I'd like to ask you about your Morton Family entries. Where is this cemetery located? My family recently heard a story that there is a small cemetery on my grandparents farm on Lone Pine Road at Redd Run Road and I'm thinking that this is the same one. Any info would be great!
Thanks,

 | Andrew Clark
I noted your entry of a single marker, and was curious since I don't live far. Here's what I found on an Ohio genealogy site. I'm assuming your Andrew is this Andrew W.'s father:
ANDREW W. CLARK and family, from Washington County, Pa., came to Buffalo township about 1816. He was born in 1786 adn died in 1864. He married Sarah Lawrence, and was the father of Margaret, William, John, Robert, Barbara, Alexander, James, Sarah J., Samuel L., Martha A. and Andrew W., four of whom are dead. Andrew was in the army, and died during the war. William Clark, who died in 1886, was born in 1812. He married Mary Ann Clark, and was the father of six children. The family are Methodists.
Hope you found it neat...I've always enjoyed learning about the permanent residents in cemeteries, even if I'm not related to them :) | | | Mary Ann Fisher-Procopio

Sandman,
Thank you so much for all of the tombstone pictures. More importantly, thank you for the wonderful pictures of your family. They are priceless. I am proud that the Masons are a part of my husband's extended family tree.

Thank you for making the updates! I was so excited the day I saw the memorial for him and the headstone shot you took. It's one of the few headstone shots I've actually gotten to see of one of my Rev. War ancestors. So many of the others are lost or destroyed... so thanks for finding it : )Added by Calcat on Oct 22, 2011 10:38 PM | | | | [View all messages...] |
