Bio and Links
Bio Photo I have always found cemeteries to be fascinating places. It is possible to trace family lines of people you know and don't know. It is so important to have a history of people who made this country what it is. I have always felt I was born 100 years too late as I am interested in the way life was back then.

I have just recently begun taking pictures for the site and I find it a great way to clear my head after a hard day.

RE: Mannington Cememtery Photo
You are so very welcome. I have had a few funerals there and wanted to add the sign. I am so glad you appreciate it.

We're not that distantly related.
Fifth cousins once removed means you're just younger than I am.

RE: Sponsored Memorials
Hi Michele,
Mary Elizabeth Johnson Floyd was my 4th Great Grandmother. I descend from daughter Melinda or Belinda Ann. John Shuman was my 4th Great Grandfather. I descend from his son Joshua. I don't recall a sponsorship for John Floyd. If you meant Henry Francis Floyd, he of course was my 4th Great Grandfather. Thank you for the memorials.

Regards,

Jamie Straight

Leave the memorial, that is where she is actually buried.

If you would read my entry, it states it is a cenotaph (meaning - a marker and no physical body buried) and has a link to your memorial page. I am not sure why she (or the family) had a headstone added to New Palestine Cemetery (as if purchasing one headstone was not expensive enough) where her daughters are buried and at St Vincent's Cemetery, as well, but as you can see from the photo the headstone states that she is not buried at New Palestine but at St Vincent's Cemetery. Hence why I linked my page to your page.

I wrote to ADMIN and asked what to do about entering a second memorial page. They said it is not considered a duplicate memorial page because it is two different photos in two different cemeteries, and to list and link together as I have done. They are doing the same with the military personal that died and were buried overseas in WWI and WWII. Bodies left overseas and "Mom" needing a place to mourn added headstones to local cemeteries, are being linking them together whenever possible.

Thanks for asking, but do leave the memorial page!

Hi Michele,
Looks like there may be two of the same John L. Floyd's listed on Find A Grave. Slightly different death dates.
#52076035 dated 5-6-2010 and
#53816180 dated 7-17-2010

It really gets confusing...:) Maybe you can get with Glenda and figure it out. I know you have his parents listed Henry Francis and Mary Elizabeth Johnson Floyd and Glenda has his children.
Blessings
