Written in Stone: In-Depth Study of a Gravestone

Join us on September 19 at 7 pm with Gena Philibert-Ortega as she presents “Written in Stone: In-Depth Study of a Gravestone”.

Genealogists use gravestone information to document death information, but oftentimes, a burial marker provides more than biographical information. In this presentation, we will explore types of cemeteries, the anatomy of a marker, and the “hidden” information the marker provides.
