Great tips. My fav is #5. I would probably forget some of those items. I never heard of Cemetery Search. Tfs
Great tips for visiting cemeteries. Thanks. I haven't been to any since last year. I need to plan a trip!
Thank you, great information !!
My suggestion is always look on all 4 sides of a monument / stone. There is often info on the sides and back.
