So I have done it. I have posted my first photos to www.findagrave.com tonight. As I was working on adding photo citations (and correctly filing the digital files) to pictures from a genealogy trip last fall, I randomly decided to look and see if the tombstones were listed on findagrave.com. Sure enough, there were no photos for Dudley and Opal Mitchell who reside eternally at Memorial Park, Hutchinson, Kansas.
I am sharing this here on the blog because I am not sure that my husband will be able to relate to my excitement about posting gravestones of dead people to the Internet. I am so glad that my mind could not stay on the task at hand (citations and filing). It was really easy to add the photos and I will definitely be adding more in the future. Hopefully, my small contribution tonight will help another researcher down the line. Okay, so now that I have slid even further off track by stopping to write a blog post, back to the trenches and citations.
I think you have just invented a new genea-term.
ReplyDeleteSeveral responses came to mind... but I'll just say congratulations on losing your posting virginity!
