**TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION**

My count is unbalanced because I maintain many memorials for contributors no longer on Find a Grave.
I am more than happy to work with others to help family members have their memorials from THESE listings. Most will be transferred.
NO BULK TRANSFERS

I put a great deal of time into creating many of these memorials and adding the gravestone pictures and historical information to them from Park Cemetery. Many of them are early day pioneer citizens and the listings are becoming a good reference base for the history of the residents of Carthage, Jasper county, Missouri.

I am continually researching the pages I've created and often find more things to add to my pages.
So unless the listings are your direct relatives, why bother to request a transfer? I add links and information so send whatever you have to me.
Click HERE to read Find a Grave policy to see whether your request qualifies for my personal listings. Please include the memorial number when requesting links.
I am more than happy to have anyone add their personal photos of people on pages

Please do not use chalk, flour, chemicals etc when taking your grave photos.

A memorial that is really special to me is for Josh Baker. Please stop by and read his experience of heroism and leave a flower. My appreciation to Sharon Williams for sponsoring this page.

"The country newspaper is truly a family record. It proclaims your marriage, it announces the birth of your children, it gives the obituary notice of a loved one of your family. It not only gives your family record, but the family record of your neighbors. Many do not realize the benefit their home paper is to them."
The Newton County News August 14, 1890


DO NOT use the message board for sending information or transfer requests. That is not what it is for. I WILL NOT MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENTS, LINKS OR TRANSFERS FROM MESSAGES LEFT ON THE BOARD.

PLEASE USE THE EDIT TAB on the upper right side of the memorials, then choose the Suggest a Correction feature for transfers or to add information and links.

RE: Dr. William Davis Foster
Thanks so much for your prompt response AND your permission. I believe I will use your name, since you say it's OK. I have already heard back from the tombstone contributor but not the portrait photo contributor. This is the first time I've found a legal document on Find A Grave and I really DO appreciate it.

I am currently compiling in hard copy the Cheadle family history of which the above is a descendant of the progenitor, George Cheadle. My mother-in-law was a Cheadle. I am not requesting transfer of any memorials but would respectfully request permission to download the photograph posted on the above memorial and the death certificate (and any others which may apply) with credit given such as "Courtesy of I remember when (unless you provide and permit use of your proper name), contributor, Find A Grave Memorial # ? ? ?" if this is agreeable.

I look forward to your response either way. My treatise is in no way a profit making project and will not (by my request) be posted on the internet nor will living individuals be included to the best of my ability.

You have no idea how much we who are of an age (I'm 84) or distance and cannot traipse through cemeteries as we once did appreciate the effort and passion of you who contribute to Find A Grave. Many thanks from an old lady.

Thank you so much for getting me back to Findagrave. I am really attached to the Geo. Miller record. The cemetery was hard to get into as it is fenced and locked with cattle (including a bull) roaming. I slid under a gate as did my husband, keeping an eye out for the law as we did so. My husband and I traced the Miller family from Kentucky to Oklahoma, visiting each place they lived, stopping in small towns to visit little museums and speak to elderly people who had recollections of the family. We spent several days out at the site of the 101 ranch, Cowboy Hill, and the various museums that hold the ranch memorabilia. We visited the cemetery and graves in Ponca City where Miller family members are buried. The trip from our home in North Carolia to the sad remnants of the 101 is a treasured memory. If someone has something to add I have no problem with that, but I want to retain my record. It means a lot to me.

I've added a few small obits, mostly for children, as I go through the Cherokee newspaper. I'm up to April, 1908.

Thank you
Thank you for the added information for Phyllis Pim. She was one of my hair clients and I've known her probably since opening my shop in Joplin which was 1986. My dad thought her daughter Melinda had the sweetest smile & said that she reminded him of Shirley Temple. I knew this day was coming, as did her family but I guess when it does... it's never easy.
