My current interest is to find the resting places of the early believers of the Baha'i Faith, in America and around the world. As we commemorate the Centenary of the 1912 visit of Abdu'l-Baha to the West, we are remembering these founders of our world-wide Baha'i community. It's nice to keep a record of where they rest.
"I long to visit the graves of the friends of God, could this be possible. These are the servants of the Blessed Beauty; in His path they were afflicted; they met with toil and sorrow; they sustained injuries and suffered harm. Upon them be the glory of God, the All-Glorious. Unto them be salutation and praise. Upon them be God's tender mercy, and forgiveness." - 'Abdu'l-Baha, Memorials of the Faithful, p. 14 | |

 | RE: Julian Abas Ask that person if they would like ownership of his memorial. I only transfer to relatives of the person whose memorial I created. Let me know if you have anything to add to his.Added by Tiana on May 07, 2013 5:41 PM | | | Tiana
 | RE: Julian Abas Thanks for letting me know. Are you related to Julian? I can transfer ownership of his memorial to you if you are. I am no relation.Added by Tiana on May 07, 2013 11:52 AM | | | Pat

 | RE: Journey That must be so exciting to have that access! Thank you for the offer!
I have two, no three, special memorials. One of Emma Martensen who served on first Denmark Assembly who was adopted by our family and my Dad, homefront pioneer to Oregon, who declared in Hawaii having attended Maurey Willows Firesides. Wonder who witnessed his declaration? And how could I forget my dear brother, musician-graphic designer, Paul Blote. He filled in for Dash in Bahama Conference in 80's. I would like to learn more about that project. All three on my page.
I wonder though if these posts should be more private?

 | RE: Petrine & Gustave Gunderson Yes Robert Mitchum was my friend's grandfather's first cousin.
I didn't put up the memorial of my friend's great-grandfather, so I can't link him to Gustav & Petrina. Their son was Charles Oscar Gunderson (1892-1959), grave #37043174. You can also see my virtual cemetery for "Gunderson Ancestors." Charles' son Norman (my friend's grandfather and Mitchum's first cousin) is grave #105695073 .
Is your friend a granddaughter of Petrina's daughter Gertrude (Gunderson) Tetreault? I have several generations of the Gundersons in Oslo & in Østre Toten, Norway before Gunderson was their surname when they were using "patronymic" last names.

 | RE: Petrine & Gustave Gunderson Hi again Candace,
Thanks for the information. They would be related, my friend Peter Gunderson (of the Boston area) is a great-grandson of Petrine's only son Charles Oscar Gunderson (1892-1959), the only one of Gustave and Petrine's children who stayed in New England, settling in Killingly, Connecticut. The other two daughters Ann Harriet and Gertrude went to California with their mother, so I take it Wendi must be one of their granddaughters. Did she have that photograph? I have done research on Gustave's ancestors back in Norway tracing the lineage back to the 1700s, if she is interested, she can e-mail me.
Thanks,

 | Petrine & Gustave Gunderson Hi Candace,
Thank you so much for uploading the picture of Petrine & Gustave Gunderson. Where did you find their picture? They are my friend's great-great-grandparents. Thanks! Chris | | | Denise
 | RE: Corinne True Received your message, but I haven't been very active on this site for a while so I'm embarrassed to admit I can't recall how the family members you referred to are related to me! Can you help refresh my apparently failing memory? Thanks!Added by Denise on Oct 20, 2012 6:49 PM | | | BArnold
 | Hill's and Nesbit's of Jordan I am not a Hill or a Nesbit, so any of these that you would like transferred, please let me know I would be happy to do so. I am from Jordan and a lot of my family is buried in maple grove so I tried to help others find theirs and uploaded the whole cemetery. If you have photos to upload, please do so. I have a lot of neat links for Jordan, like 1860 and 1870's maps showing where everyone lived. You can click request a photo and someone should be able to get you a photo of the gravestone.Added by BArnold on Oct 15, 2012 3:29 PM | | | | [View all messages...] |
