Stories in the Stones—Tales They Tell
Speakers: Dick Cooper and Jim Lohr
Cemeteries can be a treasure trove of genealogical information. Dick Cooper has worked with the website www.findagrave.com for years and found it to be an excellent source of general information. Jim Lohr has photographed over 35,000 gravestones for the web site billiongraves.com. Together, they tell you how web sites like these can help you in your own research.
