As I say in my Find a Grave profile,
"There is a story under every stone".
While photographing graves for Find A Grave or genealogy research, I have come across many interesting stories about the people buried under those tombstones. In this blog I will share some of the most interesting of these stories with you. Why? So these people will not be forgotten.

Great piece of research...I am from the north of England some distance where this chap came from... It was surprise to read how many English people came to America in the 19th century to make a better life...England was a terrible place to live in the 19th century if you were poor. Cheers from across the pond
I love the work you do here...! Checking out what happened to average people who once lived a life. Just like we're all doing. And one day maybe someone will be doing the same thing with us.... Keep up the good work!
