(NOTE: click on photo to enlarge)
My wife Barbara and I were both born and raised in northern Virginia (Arlington, County) and have been active genealogist there and elsewhere for over 40+ years. Both of our family lineages are from the northern Virginia area (Loudoun, Clarke, and Fauquier Counties). Those lineages that WE ARE ALWAYS INTERESTED IN include (their spellings not really important): STICKLES, STICKELS, STICKLE, STICKEL, STICKELL; HOWDERSHELL, HOUDYSHELL, HOWDYSHELL, HOUDERSHELL, HOUNSHELL; PIER, PEER, FLETCHER, and LITTLETON.
If it happens that we have prepared a FIND A GRAVE memorial for one of your direct immediate family members and you would like to have it 'transferred' to you, please use the "Suggest a Correction Link" located in the upper right-hand corner of each memorial. Please include your direct relationship to the deceased.
And from FIND A GRAVE, under the sites "Frequently Asked Questions', members can find all the answers to questions they may have related to the "Editing, Correcting and Transfer Request of existing Memorials". Specifically, just a few of the existing rules for all members to remember which are posted there include:
- Always include in your request your unique member Contributor ID # which is displayed to the right of your member name on your profile page.
- Transfer requests should be for direct relatives within four generations, this would be for your siblings, parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents. At the same time of your request for transfer--you should also provide the original contributor 'some sort of proof' as to your actual relationship to the deceased.
- The transfer of any memorial is PERMANENT and cannot be undone. Your name will remain on the memorial as the original contributor, but you will no longer be able to edit bio, dates, etc. Please note that it is considered bad form to request a transfer and then, after receiving the transfer, delete that page and substitute it with a new memorial that you have created.
Please remember that there are thousands of contributors to Find A Grave; the goal is not necessarily to "own" every memorial of those to whom you are related. The ultimate goal should be to have meaningful, accurate memorials that honor those who have passed away, regardless of who created the memorial or who maintains it.
If you should find any errors we may have made inputting any information, please advise us so that we may fix those same errors immediately. If you have any questions related to any of the particular family lineages that we have created/keep track of, please advise us via email about just what you would like us to check on, search our data base(s) for, who you may desire a picture of, etc.--being sure to give us all the possible information that you can relating to your particular query. Send you queries to: fabfoley213@hotmail.com
My wife and I continue to really enjoy working on photo request or "shoots" for fellow FIND A GRAVE members (or most anyone else) for particular tombstones, markers, individuals, etc. in cemeteries located in our general vicinity--and elsewhere.
I am a Viet Nam era U.S. Army veteran (Nov '65-Dec '67) and a member of both the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars for the past 41+ years. I retired from the Department Of Defense(DIA/MSIC)as Division Chief with almost 36 years of service in December 1997. My wife is also retired (from the private sector) and we continue to be blessed with good health--and the ability and funds to pursue our grandchildren, genealogy, and many of life's other various "passions."
With warm regards,
Barbara & Big $TICK

Thank you so much for the beautiful tribute you left on my brother 's memorial - actually our first post to Find A Grave. It was and continues to be the hardest thing I've had to face - so far. In 1965 we were blessed to have our parents all four grandparents, a great grandmother and all in reasonably good health.
Kyle called mother the night before they started home - proud of his diploma / wanted her to frame it . It was in his suitcase, torn straight down the middle. They had bought their first new car - '65 red Mustang, another brother being discharged from Marines and "The boys" and dad planning a lot of fishing over the next 30 days. .. And in a twinkling of an eye our lives changed forever - just like you said.
Enjoy retirement and THANK YOU for your service to our country! | | | Layla

| Fletcher/Rokeby Cemetery Question
Hello there,
I see that you put in the memorials for those buried in the Fletcher/Rokeby Cemetery, and I was curious if you have access to this cemetery. I have not been out there, but I gather that this is on the grounds of the Mellon estate (Oak Spring) in Upperville.
I am able to toodle around cemeteries in Faquier County and take pictures for folks, and I see there is a request from someone for a picture from this cemetery, but I would assume it is not easily accessible due to its location. Hoping you could share with me what you know about it.
Thanks
