A recent incident concerning my privacy and online safety has prompted the restriction of my family page at Tribalpages.

Any suggested edits sent through findagrave must remain on the topic of adding, removing or amending information in memorials.

I don't really have any hang ups about what is presented but I may hesitate to add these things below.

• Estimated dates from census or other records with a preference for a tombstone image to back up those dates. Estimated dates will be added to the biography.

• Not a fan of death certificates added to memorials. Any details about death should be redacted.

• Census, death record abstracts and obituaries are not biographies.

• Burial location information will not be edited without a specific and compelling reason.

Presentation of burial location information is in the eye of the beholder. No matter how you present it, it means the same thing.

Such as: Lot 1 Plat 2 vs Plat 2 Lot 1 or Square 6, Scott's Free Burying Ground vs Scott's Free Burial Ground 6.


Sage advice from a Friend of Bill W.

• Don't forget to show your teeth when you smile.

• We have two choices when it comes to our own behavior.

• Vinegar should be used in moderation.

• Make sure your cornbread is done in the middle.

• Seek peace whenever possible. Others might call this weakness but it takes strength to walk away from anything or anyone that disturbs your soul.
