Hello- About 15 years ago while going through an old trunk that my Mom kept all of her goodies in.we found a picture of her grabdmother and grandfather whom she had told me that they came over from Ireland during the potato famine. My Mom knew nother more than that as they had died before she was born.I loved those pictures and they fairly brought me to tears at the wonder of it. From then on I was hooked and talked to my husband about joining Ancestry.com. I did and here I am at 64 today and even though I cant get out much I enjoy doing cemeteries and putting them on here. My husband, bless his heart, takes a hundred pictures for me at a time and I have a list of burials at the cemetery and within 2 days he has to go take me more. I keep him busy but it is good therapy for me. Thank goodness for Find a Grave in so many ways. Also, if there are members that would like memorials transferred to them, I would be more than happy to do it if the memorial is not a direct link to me. Just please let me know. Barb
