Welcome to my website - a collection of some of my favorite pictures. I love photographing cemeteries & headstones, old schools-churches-town halls - anything old or historic, lighthouses, nature - ok, everything! There’s nothing better than grabbing a Blizzard, hopping in the car and driving around aimlessly all day (thank goodness for GPS!)
You’ll find pictures of my family throughout this site. On the pages with headstones I have included pictures of family members who are in my direct line and also pictures received from the wonderful people I’ve met on the internet. Family pictures include names with an * before and after the name. All other headstones I took the picture but don’t know the person. If you see a headstone of someone in your family and have a picture I’d be happy to post it for you along with your contact information.
Many pictures on the following pages I found while I was out driving around - some hundreds of miles from my home. I am unable to answer every inquiry so please try the internet or check the local libraries. If you are interested in finding any of these places please check out my favorite websites:
