Sharing my love of genealogy and my experience as a genealogist to inspire everyone to search out their family trees...the past, present, and future are all connected. Researching your family tree is like looking for a bunch of needles in a whole lot of haystacks, and then threading those needles together to tell your family's story. If you know where you come from you can know who you are and where you're going!

Tombstone Tuesday - Rockville Cemetery, Lynbrook, New York
I don't know any of these people, but I was wandering around Rockville Cemetery last Friday on my day off, as I am wont to do unlike normal people who go to the mall or to the beach, and these headstones all caught my eye. I spend so much time in Catholic cemeteries - wait, that makes it sound like I'm always hanging out in cemeteries. I'm not, I swear. But whenever I go to a cemetery for genealogy research, it's always either a Catholic cemetery or a nonsectarian cemetery dominated by Christian markers. So these headstones stood out, so I thought I'd share them with you.
If you're anywhere near Long Island and our mega-heat today, try to stay cool!
