Bio and Links
Bio Photo Because of fires, floods and loss, I started photographing all the markers in Jackson Co Michigan in Nov 2006. We've discovered the 1927 DAR WPA cemetery transcription project didn't have anyone actually walk any of the county cemeteries. They obtained the information from cemetery records, church records and neighbors. Fortunately for all of us this included records of those graves with no markers. Most of the early cemetery records have perished along with some of the cemeteries. Hopefully, we will be able to provide info for descendants of the early/current residents of Jackson County Michigan. By using census, marriage, death and local history information we try to make our entries as complete as possible. Email with info on your ancestors and we'll add them to any of our records. We'll be happy to help you in your search. I'm the County Keeper for Jackson Co.

Currently, I'm working on adding maiden names to as many memorials as possible.

As of 22 Aug 2009 Jackson Co FAG volunteers have 66,501 burials recorded, by Jan 2010 72,323 burials and by Jan 2013 101,483 burials. Many of the cemeteries have been completed with pics.

Please request edits, corrections & transfers thru the SAC tab (edit tab on the memorial page) and not here on the home page.

Thanks to all those FAGer's who have trusted me to take care of their memorials and have transferred their memorials over to me while they take a leave from findagrave.

Thank you Deb for the picture. I'm still researching to see if there are any living relatives of this part of the family. On my late husband's side of the famly, we found out by doing research that his great grandfather on the Wise side of the family didn't have a headstone. Thru a relative that worked at the cemetery, we found out where his casket was located and Skip and his cousin had a marker put up where he is at rest.

Thanks again

Photo Request
Hi Deb,

I was wondering if you would be able to get a picture of my 4th great-grandmothers stone in Parma Cemetery? Her husband is buried up here in Traverse City, and we just recently found out about his wife being Parma. Her number on here is 17035705. Catherine Burkdorf Youker. Appreciate all of your hard work. Find A Grave was the only way of finding this information out! Thanks so much.
