Find a Grave's Virtual Cemeteries - Where People of the Past with something in common can gather together one last time.

Even if you are a long time member of "Find a Grave", it is possible that you may not have taken advantage of its particularly useful tool: the "Virtual Cemetery" that it offers. 

Below is a link to my Find a Grave "Virtual Cemeteries", including my two recent and most extensive, Virtual Cemeteries. Each of them are set to Public View, meaning any member of Find a Grave can view them. 

There are other settings available via the "Edit" button; including adding a Cover Photo and Optional Description to help customize how you wish to present the Virtual Cemetery. They also can be shared to Facebook, etc. which is also a helpful feature!:

Try creating one and you'll be glad you did!
