    3. Thanks Joe! I am very familiar with the FAG site as the newspaper in my town had a story about me and the findagrave.com site this week. Actually, I didnt take the other cemetery info with me because after 'talking' with you, I felt sure you had guided me in the right direction. Please dont think I am blaming you but I am blaming myself for not being better prepared. I even forgot my cemetery bag with whisk broom and rubbing materials. It was a long trip and I was in charge of a reunion on Saturday. Blah, Blah , Blah..... moral of the story..... dont try to do too many things in one weekend!! But.... I do appreciate all your guidance because trying to anything long distance is really difficult!
