The Importance of Cemetery Restoration

My family and I are passionate about caring for our cemeteries. As part of our genealogy research we went to South Attica Cemetery in Lapeer, Michigan. Here are a few photos of clearing, cleaning, and documenting headstones on Find a Grave for the Hall family headstones. Information on Find a Grave can be found here. For those of you new to Find a Grave, it is a website that allows the everyone to find and add to their online database of cemetery information. It is free to search, and they receive most of their data from volunteers.

This work is something that is critical to future generations in knowing their history. Together, as a community of genealogy researchers, we make such a difference.
