Bio and Links
Bio Photo Her passion was genealogy, she loved it! For years my mother researched; wrote letters; purchased b/m/d certificates. She was known as a great genealogists by our entire family. The computer was intimidating to her, but daddy always said "There's never been a computer built that could match your mamma's memory." He was right! We kids thought her passion for the dead was silly. Then when my mother-in-law passed away, I realized that my husband's family history went to the grave with her. I started searching for info on my grandfather & an uncle...I got hooked, BIG TIME! Needless to say, mother was thrilled that I was finally interested in genealogy. We'd talk for hours on the phone about this one & that one. Mother wanted me to get everything she had gleaned, entered on the computer. Then 2 months ago I found this website & started entering everyone's data. I'd print the pages & mail them to mother for her proofing & approval. I never dreamed that just two months later I'd be memorializing my mother here. What little bit of work I'd done on FAG before mother passed away was rewarding. However, I found it healing to enter her biography & honor her memory. I'd be thrilled to have you visit my mother's (Wynona Thomas) memorial. Thank you, FAG for this forum to honor our loved ones. In the 2 months I've been entering data here, I've had several volunteers take photos of my loved one's tombstones & share them with me. Thank you all for this wonderful gift. If I can assist anyone with photos, please let me know.

PLEASE do not copy or upload my photos to any other websites. Its copyright infringement, and I do not want my volunteer work given to any for profit sites.

On her memorial page, you have her name wrong. It's Tamber Heady, not Tamara. Thanks.

RE: Martha Ward
Hi Carolyn. I had contacted Pat also. She is supposed to be buried in Andice Cemetery in Williamson County, Tx. I have not been to that cemetery, but her grave is not listed anywhere that I know of. This information came from some family members. Martha

Hi Carolyn,
Thank you so much! Actually, when I saw the original birth date, 1895, I thought it was transposed & supposed to be 1859. As you know, sometimes it's difficult to read old tomb stones, and even though it looks like 1850, I believe it is 1859. Look again & see what you think.

RE: Balls
Good. I hope you get better/faster service out of the admin folks than I do when I try to get an "abandoned" memorial to update/correct. Good Luck.

RE: Katie Ball
I also posted pictures to her parents memorials, Joseph and Emma (Bergmann) Ball. Katie's memorial is "frozen" because the fellow that created it has gone inactive. I may try to get Find A Grave-Admin to transfer her to me so I can link them up.
