"June 14, 2014 - Speaker Mr. Harold George will share with us about Grave Dowsing. Dowsing is an age old art that
has been used for centuries to locate water, graves, and other elements
below the earth's surface, using a dowsing rod or wand. Basic dowsing techniques will be presented. Those in attendance will be shown how to make their own
dowsing rods. Program goals are: Provide insight into burial practices
observed throughout history, as well as during the Civil War; Provide
techniques used for locating unmarked gravesites; Ideal for both
Novice and Expert genealogists; Everyone in attendance receives a free
quick reference guide to grave dowsing. Immediately following the
meeting all will be welcome to rejoin at Greenlawn Cemetery for a hands
on demonstration."
