Family time

Gravestoned is primarily a blog about the gravestones I photograph during my graveyard hopping, but now and then I write about my own family tree, graves and otherwise. Some of these more personal posts are, as you might imagine, among my favorites.

For any cousins, distant or otherwise, who might find their way to this blog, this summary of family posts is for you.
