Bio and Links
Bio Photo I live in Central Ohio with my husband. I'm a proud U.S. Navy veteran, and a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution.

Preserving a very old stone on a photo is a blessed thing. I always think of the ancestors in the future that will stumble onto this site and find that stone, that may be worn away by weather or destroyed by an evil vandal now, but has been preserved for them with photography here forever.

I'd really appreciate it if you'd visit my parents memorial pages and leave a flower for them. God bless you in advance for doing this!!

THIS IS A CEMETERY

Lives are commemorated
Deaths are recorded
Families are reunited
Memories are made tangible and
Love is undisguised
This is a cemetery.

Communities accord respect
Families bestow reverence
Historians seek information and
Our heritage is thereby enriched.

Testimonies of devotion, pride and warmth are carved in stone to pay warm tribute to accomplishments and to the life, not the death, of a loved one. The cemetery is homeland for memorials that are a sustaining source of comfort to the living.
A cemetery is a history of a people, a perpetual record of yesterday and a sanctuary of peace and quiet today.
A cemetery exists because every life is worth loving and remembering...always.

I am writing to ask your permission to copy the pictures of the headstones for Dr. Silas Allen his wife and cildren. I am researching the Fuller family tree and the Allen family is distantly related to my wife.
I would like to copy them to my computer genealogy program, they will not be posted anywhere on the net and the pics will be attributed to you.
Once I "complete" the genealogy, I plan to donae a copy to the NS Public Archives and the Kings County Historical Society (as well as printing copies for relatives).
Thanks! Randy Harrison, Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada

Friesner Cemetery
Hello,

Do you know how to contact the people who own the land, and probably, the Friesner Cemetery? I was just there, and went down the long land, and knocked on the door, and no one answered. I would like to know how to get the cemetery restored, but, I need to know if the cemetery is considered private property now, and who to contact. Thank you for all you do, as this is a great and helpful hobby. I am also DAR, and have joined through my Ancestor in Fairfield County Ohio.

Refugee Cemetery
Linda: Have you ever seen the offical records for Refugee Cemetery where the Seevers are buried? My personal records state Elizabeth and Peter Seever are buried here with no stones, but I do not know where I in fact got that information. Are two of their daughters Catherine and Martha buried here and not noted..A recent couple of photo's have been sent to me...that I believe might be the two daughters and they are buried between Archibald and Mahala and the stones appear to be too old to be Elizabeth and Peter. Do you know anyone at this cemetery or should I try calling the number on the board posted at the cemetery.? Any thoughts?

Bethel Cemetery, Fairfield County
My great-great-great grandfather James McCormick is buried in Bethel Cemetery along with his secondd wife. It appears there are many Scotch-Irish buried here. I have been looking for the grave for his father William who was a Revolutionary War veteran and lived on the same farm that James inherited from him. Do you know what kind of records the cemetery has and who has them? Are they complete or could there be persons buried with no records? Also was sthere a church here originally and was it a Prebyterian one? Would be interested in what you can tell me.
