Cemeteries

Cemeteries are a wonderful place to find information about your ancestors. Tombstone inscriptions often tell when a person died and sometimes the date of birth and name of parents. However, you can't find a tonbstone unless you know where the cemetery is. (The name of the cemetery is listed on the death certificate.)
