Remember this always
Find a Grave was founded by one person, it is his work
Ancestry.com was founded by two people, it is their work.

No one can take credit for the three founding members' work, those three, one person created Find a Grave, two people created Ancestry.com, it is their work, in their name. they created their "own" work.
READ your Find a Grave policy.

To millions, any, one researcher, you have to create your own work, with your name, to receive credit for your "own" work, just as the founding members did their work, that includes Historians, Genealogists, Researcher's, each one, each one their own work.
Not someone else's work.

Every Librarian, in the United States knows credit is given to one person for Find a Grave.com, credit is given to two people for Ancestry.com.
It is their work, they created their own work.

The first question a Librarian will ask when submitting your own work to the Library?
What are your sources?
Where did you get your information?
As I have told millions,
you can't use Find a Grave
you can't use Ancestry.com
Because its not your work, it is the three founding members', it is their information, it is their work,
it is in their three names, they created their own
work.

People ask me,
what is the difference between
a genealogist and a contributor?
I have done this for 40 years, here it is,
a genealogist, receives credit for their work.
a contributor, receives no credit for their work.

As a genealogist
I go to any cemetery,
I transcribe,
I take picture's,
I turn it in to the library.
The library archive's it, with credit in my name.

As a Genealogist
I research anyone's family
I compile all of their families information
I put their family tree's in order
I turn it in to the library
The library archive's it, with credit in my name

As a Contributor, on here
You go to any cemetery,
you transcribe,
you take picture's,
you turn it in on here in your name,
Only one person receives credit,
thats right the founding member,
which is his work,
not yours because
your a contributor, you participate on here,
you can't turn it in to the library
because its not your work on here,
its the one person who founded
Find a Grave, its his work,
you cannot take credit
for someone else's work.

Why do you think the library won't
accept it, because its from the internet,
researched material from the internet,
is not accepted at the library,
Think about it,
The Library's in the U.S.,
has integrity,
has credibility,
you think they are going to take a risk
on viruses, hackers, researched material
from the internet
No they are not.

Thats the purpose for the Library.
as a Genealogist, a Historian,
you establish yourself at the Library
you research at the Library
you compile all of your work at the Library
you turn your work in, at the Library
in your name, at the Library
you archive your work, at the Library.

Now my favorite part,
you always have nay sayers, contributor's
you have those who discredit your work,
I tell anyone, go to the Library
my work started at the Library in 1982,
40 years ago,
the Library credits my work,
my credibility is with the Library,
The Libraries credibility is with me,
not a nay sayer. not a contributor.
The library has a sign just for them,
thank you for visiting, ya'll come back.

one individual created his own work,
one individual created Find a Grave,
that million's of Contributor's,
now, today, forever,
cannot ever, take credit for his work.
only one person, who founded Find a Grave
can take credit, just one person receives credit.
Now that is Amazing!! That is Outstanding!!

Contributor
on here means, you participate,
walking cemeteries out in the real world to
take photo's of gravestone's, creating memorial's
that is a Contributor, no credit.

Contributor's on Find a Grave?
Find a Grave is a tool, that provides a
service to million's of contributor's,
who participate, they only participate,
on this site.
