  • 070 - FindAGrave's Major Update: What You Need to Know
    Jan 13 2022

    In January 2022, FindAGrave made two major updates. The first impacts memorials created for the recently deceased -- a change that the genealogy community has been requesting for years.

    The second is a change to the relationships that require a transfer when a family member asks to manage a memorial. This change can help more family members manage the memorials of their loved ones. 

    The show notes include links to FindAGrave's updated support pages.

Very Helpful

I wasn't really thinking about blogging. This just happened to be the next episode to listen to. But I thought of a lot of ideas while listening for a blog about writing about family history inspired by family artifacts and genealogical research. I'm going to give this some serious thought. Thanks.
