Bio and Links
Bio Photo I created the Find A Grave website because I could not find an existing site that catered to my hobby of visiting the graves of famous people. Much to my surprise, I found that there were many thousands of folks from around the world that shared my interests. Seeing Find A Grave grow and grow beyond my wildest expectations has been one of the great joys of my life.

I was born in Alma, Michigan but spent most of my youth in Denver, Colorado. I attended Grinnell College in Iowa and earned a BA in music. I currently live in Salt Lake City, Utah. I enjoy playing and writing music, reading, table tennis, foosball and disc-golf (the macho sports).

Hello,

I have already sent my email below to edit@findagrave.com twice with no resolution and no response!! Please help.

I had asked a contributor to please change some information on my 2nd great grandfather's grave. Corporal James Allison is my 2nd great grandfather. This was back in 2009. She never did fix it and I asked her a couple times. Now I see that Bev has died and James memorial was never updated as I had asked back in 2009.

Please delete the duplicate memorial Bev has created for my great grandfather that does not have correct information on him.

Here is Bev's memorial # # 18052134 This duplicate memorial for James Allison needs deleted.

My memorial number is correct since I have followed James Allison. If you need me to send the documentation on James Allison to back up my memorial, I can do that.

Thank you,

Tanya Whitaker

Correction
Hello,

In creating memorial pages forfamily members at FindAGrave, I came across on for my great-aunt Pauline Ann Lange that is incorrect for her father and could have additional information added for spouse and children. Can this memorial be assigned to me? I am not able to contact the person who created the memorial as they do not accept messages. The memorial in question is 44865611. Thanks

hard to find
Hello,
Is there a way to program the names so that parts of a name come up without having to know the entire middle name?

for example, I put in Otto Peterson, Scappoose Oregon. I even knew the Fairview cemetery. Nothing came up. When I scrolled through 1400 names, there is was under Otto H H Peterson.

Whenever I search for anyone, it comes up that it doesnt exist, and I think it's because I don't know middle initials. I usually only know the county of where they could possibly be buried.

Thanks- and I do really love what you're doing, this is just something I noticed.
Sincerely
Brenda Fielding

I have two logins and I need them combined
I had a log in when I was working, am retired and the email is no longer valid. I also do not remember the password for that account. I have signed up under my current email and would like to have to old records transfered to my current account and the old one deactivated. Can you do this for me? Darlene Lerum

Jim,
I have recently come across a contributor who has gone "inactive". This makes it impossible to make corrections to her Memorials. Her name is Bobbie Christian ( Sharon Methodist Church Cemetery Madison, Ms)I feel that she has created these memorials from lists that she has found online somewhere and has never visited the cemeteries. I would be willing to take over her Memorials and to straighten out the errors but I have not been able to get in touch with anyone having administrative authority to make this happen. Can you help or point me toward someone who can?

Thanks,
George Bragg
