Bio Photo May,2013

Hi People,

I am in the process of photographing the stones of Green Bower Cemetery in Gardner MA. I hope to finish this spring. I thank all of those people who have added/corrected information. It only makes this project better.

If you do not wish to have a memorial online for your relative then let me know and I will delete it. I am photographing in the newer areas of the cemetery and it occurred to me that this might be an issue for some people.

I have determined the genealogy of most of the original settlers (see my website below which was updated 5/2013). Some are stubbornly evasive. Most of these people are buried in the Old Burial Ground while a few are in Green Bower and Crystal Lake Cemeteries. The two published histories of Gardner don't offer much with regard to the origins of the settlers so I will hopefully put together an online resource for my second project. I am also tracing the lineages of their progeny as far as the early 1900s and sometimes further. Almost finished. That will be included, as well.

I am not originally from this town and so I would be glad to transfer the memorials if you want them. As always, feel free to download any photo I've taken and I'd be glad to do some searching in my area if you can't do it yourself.

'Nuff said. Ed

Thanks

RE: My new site
Looks interesting - good job Ed.

I would love to get back into Crystal Lake but I just don't see it happening, I don't know how I found the time last year. Free time no longer seems to exist much in my life these days - it's driving me nuts.

Goodnight,

Ryan

Thanks Ed....
Yes, if you could transfer Roswell over to me # 108472423 I would be much obliged. I am not familiar with the other Roswell descended from Ellis Russell, just this one who married Elizabeth Carrier. Thanks for all your help Ed! Sincerely, Jeff Record

Hi Ed,

Thanks for looking the Greem's in Green Bower Cemetery. I've noticed that almost all the Greem's in Findagrave are really Green's, so I was trying to see if the Greem's in Green Bower were a typo.

Thank you very much for fulfilling the requests for their gravestone photos. Such a big world and yet a small world to connect from Cape Cod to there in a flash.
Your time and efforts are very much appreciated.

And thank you for tackling your ambitious local projects!

Take care.

Ed: Thank you for the transfer of Elizabeth Whitmore Markham. I have added some history for her and am working on her siblings - this Whitmore line is quite a mess - too many with the same names and people have mixed them up for centuries! Thanks again ~ Shirleen
