Family Tree Quilt

It has been a while since I wrote something on this blog.  Funny how time goes by and life goes on. I would like to share a photo of my new family tree quilt I got recently... made by my sister.  It looks lovely on my wall and fits right in with my hobby.  You can check out her blog: http://polkadotcrossing.blogspot.ca/ and also the website: www.craftsy.com.

Looking for a gravemarker

Recently I wanted to know if I could find information from a cemetery in another part of the country. I typed the name of the area into google. I was looking for cemeteries in the Ottawa area. I typed in Renfrew cemetery. A website that came up was called freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com. These web pages list the townships and each contain photographs of gravemarkers taken by people. What a wonderful project and so helpful to us who can't go and take the photograph themselves.
