Bio and Links
Bio Photo A reason to work on family history:

"Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord . . . And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse."
Malachi 4:5-6

A reason to volunteer on Find A Grave:

"And behold, I tell you these things that ye may learn wisdom; that ye may learn that when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God."
Mosiah 2:17

I am not doing this for any self-righteous purpose, but only for the reasons listed above.

In fairness to those who may have closer ties to a memorial, please read the Transfer Guidelines prior to requesting a transfer. You do not need to "manage" every memorial that is part of your family tree. Remember that this site is for locating burials, not building a tree. There are other websites that are more suited for that purpose. I will be happy to make any links and corrections. PLEASE use the SAC feature ("Edit" tab). Please feel free to add photos where appropriate, as you do not need to manage the memorial to add photos.

Please consider using the "virtual cemetery" feature on this site to keep track of relations.

Since March 2013 I have taken over management of memorials in Inglewood Park Cemetery from Chris Mills. Please continue to send suggestions for corrections using the "Edit" tab and I will get to them as soon as I can.

Thank you so much for fulfilling my request for a photo of Effie Hargrove's (aunt) grave marker and also that of her husband Thomas Hargrove (uncle).
The find-a-grave network of volunteers like you is great for ancestry research.

Thank you so much.
The office has always got back to me right away. This was the first time I never heard from them.
Thanks again,
Jenevia

My family notes shows Paul was buried next to his mother.

I did find Paul in Forest Lawn of all places.

re: headstone pics
Thanks so much for getting the pics of both Robert Cantley's & Katheryn Cantley. And I really appreciate you adding a memorial & pic of Bruce Cantley's grave. Bruce was Robert H & Katheryn's grandson.

Wow, that was fast! I am extremely grateful to you for taking the time to do that. I have found a way to avoid the shadows that works sometimes, take the picture from the opposite view and then rotate it in the viewer.

Best regards,

Tim James

RE: Haworths
Thanks for the heads-up, Bonnie. I'll check it out right away. So many without dates and the manager says they are being added daily...but I have found that a pic of the stone is priceless. It is actually "written in stone"...pun intended.

I'll be happy to relay any photo requests to you.
Have a happy and fruitful day. ~Marcia

RE: Lloyd Lawrence
Thanks. Lloyd was adopted? by Salas Lawrence (my grandfather) after he married Leona. D.R. Appleton is his natural father. From what I have learned D.R. had some mental problems and spent his years in Wichata Falls TX at a mental institution. You also have a listing for a Clive V. Churchill in that same section of the cemetary. Lloyd was living with them. Clive is Leona's brother in law.
I never met Lloyd but my father said that he died when a movie set fell on him.
He had a sister Mabel that was older and My father his half brother. and 3 half sisters, Mildred, Margaret, and Hazel.

Hi Bonnie...

Looks like you keep pretty busy. Thanks for editing Sampson's memorial. With the Haworth/Howarth thing, you don't suppose they got the stones wrong, do you? lol That would be a scandal in itself. Nice to hear from you. Take care.

Thank you so much for photographing my grandfather's gravestone! I really appreciate it. If you ever need a photo from central Pennsylvania or around Washington, DC, I will be glad to return the favor.
