Bio and Links
I am retired from full time employment after 40 years in industry and I am currently a management trainer and consultant working with companies throughout North America. My focus is Safety and Loss Contol Systems. I travel about 20 weeks a year with a current focus in Canada at the oil sands of Northern Alberta.

My wife got me interested in genealogy and I then got bit with the "Find A Grave" bug. It is rewarding to assist others in their quest.

I am surprised how many gaps there are in the listed people at the cemeteries. Some have been relocated and others were just improperly listed. It is indeed dependent on the volunteers to supply this needed information.

I try to take pictures that illustrate the location of the grave and the features of the monument.If you have any special needs for the Western North Carolina Area, send me an email.

If you have any special request or would like to manage the memorial, please contact me.

My big quest is to locate the parents of Kinson Middleton. One line ends with him in 1885 with his death. Tons of information about him, but no factual information that leads anywhere. Rumors, but no facts.

I try to take pictures that illustrate the location of the grave and the features of the monument.

I have read some of the Bio where the person thinks they are special and sound like an attorney with what should be fun. If I can help, please ask.

If you have any special request or would like to manage the memorial, please contact me.

Della Patsy Hill
Hello,

Know this is just a typo error for Della date of birth. Thought you would like to correct birth date of Della. Currently have her date of Birth 1984 and date of Death 1966.

Regards,
Emily

M A Jones
Hello Lostages. I'm wondering if M A Jones #87258201 could be the daughter of Hiram King Jones #39456417 and Lucinda C Henderson Jones #39456609. Hiram and Lucinda (Lucy) had a daughter named Martha (1883-1886). I haven't been able to find a headstone for her on Find A Grave and it's my opinion that her parents would want to be buried near her. What do you think? I don't know if Hiram and Lucy are buried near each other. Do you visit the cemetery or have a map of the headstones, burials, etc? Any assistance you could give me in solving this mystery would be greatly appreciated since I live quite a distance from the cemetery (Washington state). Sincerely, Carolyn Parker cparkertufa@gmail.com

By the way, Hiram and Lucy are my 2nd great grandparents. Are you related to the Jones? :)

I so agree "I have read some of the Bio where the person thinks they are special and sound like an attorney with what should be fun. If I can help, please ask." I got into this for the fun and the genealogy, but some of the people here are in it for numbers and take the fun out of it especially when they won't help you with your request. I was told that my request would only be condsidered if I started off with "would you please" and end it with "Thank You" by one contributor because I was sending her so many corrections to her mistakes.

Thanks for adding the info. I knew this but someone else looking might not. You are all doing a great job for family's hunting relatives and genealogist hunting families. Thanks again.
