I thought this was an interesting article.

I received an email from a fellow "find a grave" contributor today.  I certainly appreciate her emailing me.  She had been out to the country cemetery that my great-great grandparents are buried in and saw that their grave marker had been broken.  She found my contribution on Find a Grave and wrote to tell me about it.  We have contacted a monument company to try and fix it.  I don't know if someone deliberately broke it or if a strong wind snapped it.  Either way, it was over 100 years old and I just hate that it's broken.  

I have uploaded the 2 pages of the German journal to my public gallery.  Thanks.

Thanks to everyone who helped transcribe this journal!  Y'all are the best!

Is there anyone on here that can read German handwriting?  I have a couple small pages that I would like translated.  I contacted someone who does this and he wanted $50 a page.  I just can't afford that.  Please contact me on here if you can help.  Thanks!

Thanks to everyone for their help!
