My Dad's hobby has been genealogy for over 50 years now...and he loves this site. Not only has it helped him locate ancestors, it has helped him make some corrections in his family research. He also likes to share his info and has taken and posted pictures for people looking in his area.

My wife does a lot of picture taking for Find A Grave. We do a lot of traveling on this part of Kentucky looking for old cemeteries. Also check out the Random Acts of Geneological Kindness website (www.raogk.org ). Wife signed up to be a volunteer. If you volunteer you can state the area you can check (she has a three county area around where we live). If someone needs records from a courthouse or library, locations of a cemetery, they can put a request on this site. Volunteers can tell what kind of geneological work they can do. You CAN be reimbused for some of your work. Wife really enjoys working on both of these sites.
