I posted just a couple of photos so far. I'm now working on a bulk upload of my ancestors who are buried at Spring Grove cemetery. I thought I would have more than 25 and now I'm already almost up to 100! It will take me a few days to enter the data, cross check it, upload it and then link up the folks. I'm working on it whenever I get a minute or two. Of the cemetery sharing sites I found this one the easiest to use.

I also signed up to be a volunteer photographer. I feel very fortunate to have so many families that I can research locally but I also know the frustration of trying to research at a distance!

Nophoto-u-25x33 I've looked up several family members' grave sites using find-a-grave, even had someone take a photo for me. i found out one of my great great grandmothers was buried next to her husband and not where she died, so that was helpful. Great program!

Have any of you ever visited findagrave.com? I first went thru to put virtual flowers on my fathers on virtual grave and it helped my grief. Now I have added about 40 people there online and they are using numbers now which helps. Do check it out sometime.
