Obits, links, and information on many memorials have been submitted by others – accuracy is not guaranteed. If there is an error, it's likely because of an edit. Allow three weeks for edits to be processed. Peculiar edits may be declined (example: deceased was born in 1943, mother was born in 1948).

Do not copy my photos and use them on other memorials (you are attributing the photos as your own when you use them).

Transfers within Find A Grave guidelines only.

When a person is entering memorials in a specific cemetery they aren't required to search the entire site. (Search for James Smith and you'll see why.) A duplicate memorial with a correct known burial location will always be preferred over an unknown burial location. If a member doesn't update a memorial to the correct burial location within 30 days, then that memorial will be the one deleted, even if it was created first. Don't move your Burial Unknown into the correct cemetery after I find the grave, and then insist that my memorial be removed. It's Find A Grave – not Find An Obituary.
