Gravestone Photo Exchange

Posted December 1, 2011 by Amanda | 7 Comments

One of the greatest benefits of Geni projects is the collaboration and assistance from other passionate and knowledgeable users. We thought it would be great to bring some attention to one of Geni’s earlier projects, the Gravestone Photo Exchange project.

Gravestones hold a wealth of information for the genealogy researcher. Many genealogists trek through cemeteries hunting for their relatives graves, some traveling far and wide to find that new bit of information. However, in many instances, people are unable to afford to travel long distances. In that case, check out the Gravestone Photo Exchange project. Here you can find volunteers who are willing to travel to a local cemetery to help photograph your relatives’ gravestone for you. Check out the project’s discussions to see what areas already have volunteers. You can also sign up in the discussions to offer your assistance for a cemetery near you!
