• Images on the front screen are AI generated using ChatGPT.
• Photographs of graves, memorials, and headstones were taken by Thomas Shoemaker except for a few that were downloaded from FindaGrave.com. In the case of the latter, I have made a good-faith effort to contact the original poster, but was unable. My assumption is that FindaGrave photos are public domain.
All research of individuals described in the entries of this blog is original. Resources included Ancestry, FanilySearch.org, Newspapers.com, FindaGrave.com, online cemetery records, the Arizona Memory Project, and others.
The layout and coding of all pages comprising this website are original work of Thomas Shoemaker, although frequent use was made of ChatGPT and Google Gemini for code-checking and problem solving.
