Hi my name is Joanne Brown and I live in Ashland, Virginia. I saw this post on Inglewood Cemetery. And that you go out there from time to time. And take pictures of head stones. As it is hard for me to get out there, my grandfather and step grandmother are buried there. I had never met them, but have a picture of the two of them. Would like to know if I give you the names and dates, would you mind taking a picture of their headstone, if they have one, I would greatly appreciate it very much, and will be glad to pay you for it. His name is Samuel Edward Brown , born 1885- died in 1921, was a police officer for L.A. He died from a car accident. His wife was Millie Pertie Brown, not sure when she died. If you would could you please check and see if there is a headstone and take a picture for me. Thank you so very much for your time. Joanne Brown Ashland, Va.
