www.findagrave.com
Findagrave.com has over 10,000 Yancey/Yancy graves listed in its database
about 75% of the Yanceys/Yancys have a photo of the grave posted as well as often photos of the deceased and / or obituaries.
but there is still about 25% that dont have a photo yet posted. Probably about half of that are graves for which we will probably never have photo - as there probably is no marker.
but thats still over 10% of graves that have yet to be photographed.
Usually its a simple task - just clicking the request photo button - and a Findagrave volunteer in the area will attempt to obtain a photo. (You dont have to do the photographing)
but as a user I can only request like 10-15 per two week period.
but if each of you also request - we can get a large number of them photographed.
really this is quite a miracle that just within a few clicks - we can see the grave marker
of almost any Yancey grave across the country
see:
if any of you want to help us request/obtain a photo of a Yancey grave
just go to the above link - and scroll down quite ways - and lok for something toward the middle or end of the alphabet - and click the "request" button
see if you can request as many as possible.
thanks
