I live in Lake Wylie, SC now so I take photos in this area on SC/NC state line.. Right now I am working on Ebenezer Presbyterian Church Cemetery in Rock Hill, SC. I have uploaded a little over 1000 from this cemetery. It is a genealogist dream. So many maiden names given, babies that have both parents named, inscriptions tell that the departed was from Ireland, Scotland, or Pennsylvania!.. Oh how I wish my kin where there!
Where in Louisiana. I live in Zachary, but raised in Lecompte.
I am able to take photos in Smith Co. Tx. during the year, and during the summer I do Henry Co. Ky. I also take photos when I can. I have some for the Tomey family in Daviess Co. In. that were taken this summer.
I take findagrave photos in the northern portion of the Red River Valley of the North. That includes all of Kittson County in the extreme north west corner of Minnesota and Pembina county in the north east corner of North Dakota.The population in this area is thinning out rapidly but thousands of people raised here have moved away to places all over the States. They live too far away to visit so more and more requests are coming in for grave photos. In addition to Church and Community Cemeteries we have small family cemeteries, abandoned cemeteries and lost cemeteries. Our county museum and historical society is working on a book that will list all of the cemeteries, directions on where to find them, the history of them, and up to date photos. Some time in the future we hope to have all of the 50+ cemeteries listed on findagrave.com.
I live in Hernando County, Florida and take photo requests from FindAGrave in Hernando and Sumter County. I have family buried in various cemeteries in Marion County also, so if there is a need, let me know.
I live in the northern panhandle part of ID. I take photos from cemeteries in northern ID as well as in WA around the Spokane area. My husband and I and the three kids love to visit museums, ghost towns and old cemeteries. So where ever we happen to be traveling, if there is a cemetery and we have time I do get a few good photos.

My main research though has been on the Kootenai County Cemetery aka Old Paupers Cemetery, not far from my home. There isn't much to photograph there as there is only one headstone remaining and a couple unreadable funeral home markers. No one plotted this cemetery, or the records can't be found. We only know where the one person is buried. It's kind of sad really. My project has been to research all that is intered there (I do have a list of names) and write their stories that I hope to put in a book some day.
I'm available to take photos in the Cowichan Valley and Greater Victoria areas of Vancouver Island in Beautiful British Columbia Canada!
Mountain View Cemetery searches available here.
Ontario - King City, Vaughn, Maple, Bracebridge, Simco County
I photograph mostly close to home areas. Southern Vigo County, Northern Sullivan County, Indiana. Riley Pimento Blackhawk Lewis Prairie Creek Farmersburg...
I work mainly in Hartford,WI
I signed up to take Photos and add info in Southeast Missouri, mainly Stoddard County, Dexter area. Right now my Car is in the shop so I am unable to photograph anything at present but I hope to be able to get back to it soon.
I take them where ever I may end up.....drives my kids nuts, if we drive by a small cemetery on the way to someone else, I make them at least drive through it with me.

But, mostly, I take photos in Cerro Gordo County, Iowa
Currently without a camera, but just got a tip last weekend of someone who may be able to fix it for me.....hoping that pans out and it's not too expensive. I don't want to buy a new camera and all the accesories that go with it...

I am GeneGraver on Find-a-Grave.....
