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.

TO RECORD THE GRIEF OF HIS BEREAVED PARENTS AND ONLY SISTER - James Thomas Cairns
James and Anna Cairns are my Great Great Grandparents. Their daughter Elizabeth married John Patrick O'Leary in Chicago, IL on 24 Jan 1893. They moved to Wilmington, OH and had two kids - Patrick and Mary. Patrick was my Grandfather. They were divorced in 1898. Lizzie moved back to Chicago with the daughter. My Great Grandfather, her ex-spouse, stayed in Ohio with their son.
