New Tombstone Photos
Sunday, February 20, 2011
On my birthday, 2-20-2011, my wife and I took a trip through central Arkansas and visited Bayou Meto Cemetery, Mt. Pleasant Cemetery, Sumner Cemetery and Gibson Cemetery. One of the things I want to accomplish with this website is to preserve photos of the tombstones and burial sites for Hardcastle family members and related surnames.
I had been to Bayou Meto Cemetery many times, and had taken a lot of photos there, but I was missing some that I wanted for the website. So, I spent my birthday fulfilling this wish. My wife is an excellent photographer. Her new Nikon D-90 SLR camera, and her excellent eye, were great for this project.
We were able to get photos for family names that include Hardcastle, Weeks, Harbour, Shubert, Gibson, Hogan, Brannon and several other names.
Some people (including members of my own family), do not understand why a person would want to spend his birthday doing something like this. Oh well. It was fun. We had a great time. My wife is very understanding and helpful.
