Southwest USA Genealogy & History

You have to hand it to those volunteer types.  The Arizona Cemetery Project is all provided by donated time and materials.  

I have been participating in the Yuma Cemetery project off and on for years. It is a ton of work, documenting and taking a photograph (that can be read) for each grave stone. The cemetery is just sand and many of the stones are broken, missing or lost in a drift of sand. 

It is gratifying to get an email from someone who is across the country and has now located their ancestors grave.  …. And they have a photo as well. 

Get started with your genealogy research by finiding the headstone or grave marker on ArizonaGravestone.org
