I've been researching my family history for close to thirty years. More than twenty years ago, I discovered my true passion is cemetery research. I enjoy learning more about the art and history found in a particular cemetery, as well as researching the lives behind the tombstones. They may seem to stand silently, but they can speak loudly and tell us so much. Not only about the individual memorialized, but also of the time period and the surrounding community.

I currently live in the state of Tennessee with a loving family that nourishes my passion. I started the Southern Graves blog to chronicle my journeys through various cemetery research projects.
