There are now over 300 photos in the site and I am adding some videos and other things. I am also still adding photos and will continue to do so. I will also be making updates as I go along.
Without the passcode some deceased people, (no death date is listed so tribalpages lists them as living) appear as LIVING. They are not alive unless you think someone over 300 years could be alive. Not sure how to get past that. Please send me an email for the passcode.

Remember always, a headstone is not a tribute to someone's death, but rather a tribute and honor to a person who lived and loved. It is a reminder that no matter your station in life or your worldly goods you made a difference.

Come along with me and I will tell you a story...
___________________________________________________________________________
On January 31, 1855, from his home in Austerlitz, New York,
Wade M. Calkins wrote this poem to his brother Charlie.
Forget thee? - if to dream by night, and must on
thee by day;
Forget thee? - bid the freest birds forget their
sweetest song!
Forget thee? - bid the sea forget to swell beneath
the moon!
- bid the thirsty flowers forget to drink the
e'er refreshing dew!
thyself forget thine 'own dear land,' and its
Prairies wild and blue;
Forget each old familiar face, each long remembered
spot;
When these things are forgot by thee,
Then thou shalt be forgot!
Keep, if thou wilt, thy sullen peace, still calm
and fancy free
For God forbid thy gladsome heart should grow
less glad for me;
If these preserved for patient years, at last avail
me not,
Forget me then; - but ne'er believe
That thou
canst be forgot.
*** from VOICES OF THE PRAIRIE LAND by Martin Litvin
