I have finally found the final resting place for my GGGrandmother, Rachel Winkles. So I go to find a grave to see if she is there. Nope, not there. I locate the cemetary she is in and lo and behold there are three there with the same name, same county and same state. So I email find a grave and ask which one should I create her memorial in. This nice lady named April emailed me back and she merged all three together. That was so nice of her. Of course I emailed her back and thanked her with all my heart.

Since discovering Find-aGrave have become a Graveyard Rabbit Member.... wwwgraveyardrabbitofwichitacountytexas.blogspot.com I have always been afraid of cemetaries till I started searching for information in them and then became a volunteer... now it's a hobby.

Well, it didn't come through as a hyperlink but you can copy the whole address (two lines) and paste it in your browser's address bar. Otherwise, you can use the "search 35 million grave records". There are only two Wyatt Earps to choose from.

They have a nifty search engine for finding people. Here is the link - hope it works:

Hey Louise, is there anyway you can show us the picture of Wyatt Earp's grave? I am such a big fan of Wyatt Earp, this would be such a treat!!!

When I first started uploading to findagrave, I actually did put up a couple of duplicates. I don't feel too badly about it though because I had more information than the original memorial had. I learned my lesson though. Always search before adding! :)

Hi. I am not sure this is the correct group to ask my question, but I trust you will head me in the right direction :)

I was recently told that Pennsylvania has a law that says if a family does not repair or correct a problem with a tombstone (fallen over, cracked, etc.) in 2 years, the cemetery can bury the stone. Does anyone know if this is correct?

Cemetery in Oklahoma may be dug up & the graves moved
Graves may be moved if Oklahoma City cemetery is closed

Debbie,
I was reviewing the rules at F.A.G. and duplicating a memorial is evidently a bad bad BAD no-no. So, it appears that if the admins will not help you, you may just be out of luck.
