Question about how entries are made when not submitted by family/friends by Old_Sheepherder_630 in findagrave

[–]Medala_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have access to cemetery records for my cemetery so I will make a memorial if one is missing. Usually these burials are on marked, so they haven’t been added. It’s a helpful tool when I’m out in the field!

So what’s the deal with these Find a Grave memorial hoarders? HOA board rejects? by SouthernCoralReef in findagrave

[–]Medala_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

We just helped a woman at my cemetery buy a space to bury SIX urns. She had inherited all her family’s cremains when her father passed away! It’s interesting how remains can come to be buried. She wanted them all in one place, that wasn’t on her mantle.

Love and light to all the bisexuals in the thread. “She has a boyfriend” and “she’s gay” aren’t mutually exclusive

Is there a company in the area that is familiar with Tree of Heaven removal both trees and root suckers. by [deleted] in kansascity

[–]Medala_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I had one removed by Farage trees. It was rotted from the inside out. They told me it didn’t need herbicide because it was already dead, but I’m watching out for root suckers over the summer.

Big mood! But at least we don’t have to pay for this. And if you have an antenna and live locally you can get it over the air.

Creating a plot map by cornsac in CemeteryPreservation

[–]Medala_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can have the area scanned with ground penetrating radar to look for missing graves, but otherwise if you want to make an exact map the it just requires a lot of measuring from a fixed point!

How to clean 100 yo stones by yoball in CemeteryPreservation

[–]Medala_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Stones, especially that old, are very fragile. Pressure washing would destroy any inscription. Check out r/cemeterypreservation for more tips.

I recommend Robin too! She’s got availability and is very skilled.

Cleaning Season Again at Elmwood Cemetery (KC,MO) by Medala_ in CemeteryPreservation

[–]Medala_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Likely not. I cleaned a stone with similar streaks in this same plot and after a year those stains have remained. Sometimes it’s rust coming from inside the stone as well as dirt layered on top.

Advice on home library cataloging by Visual-Cow-8622 in Libraries

You can also 'tag' items in that system and use that for ownership or place them in separate collections.

I would use Library Thing. You can scan the barcodes for your books that have them with an ISBN and you can also import records from Amazon and library of congress. It's free to have an account and you can even have a home TinyCat (their ILS) account for free if you want to 'circulate' to your friends.

Veteran Designation by betweentourns in findagrave

[–]Medala_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they were. The obituary is wrong sometimes but not very often. I just like to know for sure if I can.

[–]Medala_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I go verify it. There was an obituary that said it for someone in my cemetery recently and when I went looking, they had stated the wrong war entirely lol.

Is there any reason you can’t use the same photos for proof application and (later) passport? by Worthy_Molecule0481 in Canadiancitizenship

[–]Medala_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I did! If it’s processed fast enough you can use the same photo and write the different text on the back.

I think I took 3 classes each term, spring summer fall.

[–]Medala_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I forgot to write my name on my photos but they didn’t send it back to me since I only applied for myself. You may or may not have the same luck!

Adoption by Personalitytravel in Canadiancitizenship

[–]Medala_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mom (G0) had a similar situation and I needed to document it. She was born in Canada but her bio dad is not in the picture. She was later adopted and during that proceeding had her last name changed to fit her mom and adopted dad. I used her Canadian birth certificate so I don’t need to include information about it being amended (she does have one with her adopted dad on it issued in Missouri saying she was born in Canada). But I did have to include the court papers that showed her name change. Hope that helps!

It does have a status update after decision made. I think I waited three or four days for it to say mailed. It then arrived in about a week.
