I find tons of cenotaph sites for my Navy cases and other military personnel listed on find A Grave. Frequently have to correct a family member that, indeed, their uncle whatever relation, was not buried there, that this is a memorial marker. best regards, Dee ----- Original Message ----- From: "Donna McR" <donna316@tx.rr.com> To: "TGF" <TRANSITIONAL-GENEALOGISTS-FORUM-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, October 14, 2012 12:21:25 PM Subject: Re: [TGF] Find-A-Grave Silly me. Until recently, I thought the postings on Find-a-Grave were sourced from literally reading the gravestones and/or taking photographs. In the absence of these, I thought at least some evidence was available that the person was buried there---by cemetery records or at least by personal knowledge that the grave actually existed in that place. Any dates attached to the posting I thought were sourced with one or all of the above. However, lately I have been seeing graves posted, along with birth and death dates and information about immediate family, that are just incorrect. The erroneous information just happens to match some incorrect information also passed around on internet family trees. These persons are posting **as fact** information that has no basis of proof. It weakens the credibility of the whole project. So frustrating.
