Nel, The question/answer below was on find a grave. Does this mean that before any grave marker photos can be uploaded to the Hatcher site, written permission to do so must be obtained? Just wondered....Martha Hatcher Welling I found a photo of a relative on Find A Grave, can I use it? Photos posted to memorials on Find A Grave are copyrighted by the member who submitted the photos. Lifting the photo to use elsewhere would be a violation of copyright. You must obtain written permission from the member to use any photo for your own use. In general if you did not take the photo yourself, you do not hold the copyright to the photo. [_Top_ (http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=listFaqs#faqTop) ]

Martha, We can ask that the volunteer send you the photograph. I have done this for close family members. That way I have it to put in my FTM as well. I don't think anyone who volunteers really care if you use the photo's, it is FAG that makes those rules. But, it is a good thing to learn in advance. Winnette --- avast!
