My great grandfather is not buried with his wife, not even the same cemetery. He died in 1916, she in 1945. There is a young child buried with him and we have no idea who he is. There are no markers, because they required copper markers, which we ta

What could one say about that show that would be nice? I've tried to come up with something. No luck so far. Think I will just give up. Saw a few minutes of it once, that is all I could take.

This isn't the same thing, but I would have sworn blind that I created memorials for some missionary folks in Grand Cayman that the cemetery is right near the tender dock, and I had photos for them, and now they are there, but they are memorials ente

edit email address when a SAC hasn't been addressed after 30 days. Just forward the one you had sent to yourself, with a note to merge.

I found someone doing this too - they changed the name on the memorial to a version of their name instead of deleting a dupe. When I went to their page, there were 8 or nine of them. I notified info but they are still there.

I remember that there was a forum where one could request that two memorials in the same cemetery (the same person) could be merged. Where is that located now? Or how do I get the request done? I have contacted the memorial owner of the one that

The trouble with changedetection on memorial pages is that the rotating ads will be flagged as a change every day. (Yeah, I have adblock installed, but changedetection doesn't.) At least that's been my experience in the past. If that has changed o
