I have been working on one side of my family tree since 1987. And the other side just the past couple of years. I have learned first hand how important it is to locate family headstones for clues. I started looking for my grandfathers and it took almost a year only to find he had no headstone. By contacting VA and paying $250.00 he received a plaque. It did add clues that got me on track. I am hoping by photographing headstones I will make it easier for others.
