Hiya all. My interest is in collecting information for my family. I add it to Wikitree which is a non profit organization building one tree to link all of us together. I always use the citation at the bottom of a page to give credit to the memorial managers. I do ask for permission to use photos unless your bio shows that anyone is allowed to use a photo if they give credit. I really appreciate ALL of the work people do here. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me.

To quote member VickiO 47088510 "Regarding photos -- Photos posted to memorials on Find A Grave are copyrighted by the member who submitted the photos. Lifting the photo to use elsewhere would be a violation of copyright. You must obtain written permission from the member to use any photo for your own use. In general if you did not take the photo yourself, you do not hold the copyright to the photo. See FindAGrave FAQs for more information.

...I only ask that you give me credit for my work. This statement applies to using my photos on OTHER websites -- not FindAgrave. You cannot copy my photos to put on a duplicated memorial on FindAGrave. Apparently, this needs to be specified because some people try to find loopholes everywhere. Courtesy and common sense should guide you but if you aren't sure, you can ask me.

If you want to attach a memorial to your family tree on Ancestry, FindAGrave is listed as a source under the birth, marriage, death section. You may have to look for it, but if it's on this website, then within a short time after adding it, it will be on Ancestry, too. If you must put the photo on your tree, please add, "Photo compliments of Suzanne V DeBevoise of FindAGrave", with a link to this page."
