Bio and Links
Bio Photo I became interested in genealogy in 1993 after my grandmother passed away. I have collected 35,000 names and 2500 obituaries on Lawrence County, Ohio descendants of 1880.
In 2010 I found findagrave and found it to be a very excellent site for remembering our ancestors.
I have done considerable work on City Cemetery, Brownsville, Tx, I also have done several smaller cemeteries in Lawrence Co, Ohio.
If you have corrections or additions, I am happy to put them in. I am also happy to tranfer managenment to a responsible relative.
As I have a number of cemeteries, please, use the edit, correction suggestion to do corrections or transfer requests.

Just found a great webpage, adblock.com. It is shareware, you don't have to pay but it is worth $15-30 to block almost every ad. Stops the ads on fag, well worth something to stop them, but also stops adcoices garbage.

Maximo Galvan
Do you have a death certificate for Maximo Galvan born Oct 8, 1858, died Nov 18, 1929? Want to know what "Auasis Atrophica" is. Assume that was the cause of his death.

RE: Roberto Garriga Lartigue, Sr (#82745006)
David,

Thank you so much!!!

I do plan to add more info to the memorials, and add more family members, and link the family together.

I have family on my maternal and paternal side that were born and/or lived in Brownsville, so I may occasionally take you up on the offer.

I have been trying to find the obits and any other info on my great grandfather, Ponciano C. Montalvo, Sr. (#110366553), his son Ponciano Villafranco Montalvo Jr. (b. 1914, d. 1918), and his stepson Abran Villafranco Salinas (b. 1898, d. 1918) that family oral history indicate all died in Brownsville around the same time of the Spanish Flu. I've searched ancestory.com, familysearch.org, newspapers.com, newspaperarchives.com, and fold3.com but keep coming up empty. If you happen to come across any info or if you have suggestions for other sources where I could look it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again,

John

Could you also link Roberto Garriga Lartigue, Sr (#82745006) to his parents, Andrea Garriga (#62804702) and Emilio Lartigue (#84418562)?

Thanks again,

Gertrudis Portugal (#104991186) and other family members
David,
I added death certificates to two of the memorial pages you created, and I included family tree info in the captions of each death certificate I uploaded. I added them to my 3rd great grandmother, Gertrudis Portugal (#104991186) and to Emilio Lartigue (#84418562). Emilio is the husband of my 2nd great grand aunt, Andrea Garriga (#62804702). Andrea's father is Pedro Garriga (#102275929), her sister is Elmina Garriga (#110362227) and her half sister is Refugia Portugal Rios (#110357933). Refugia is my 2nd great grandmother. Refugia's 1st husband was Carlos Rios (my 3rd great grandfather) and her 2nd husband was Pedro Garriga.
Would it be possible to transfer Gertrudis, Emilio and Pedro's memorial pages to me, or at least transfer my great grandmother (Gertrudis Portugal, #104991186)? If not would you be kind enough to link the above family members accordingly?
Thank you so much.
Sincerely,
John Montalvo (#47909046)
