Find a GraveReviews of findagrave.com

Used Find a Grave to track down where my great grandmother is buried and had the cemetery name and plot number within a few minutes. Somebody had already uploaded photos of the headstone so I did not have to drive out there to read it. I submitted a small correction on her birth year and it got approved pretty quick too.

Find A Grave needs to be shut down or abolished for criminal conduct and mismanagement. This is an absurdity !! # 1 ~ They have no legal right to your real estate assets or personal property information relative to grave plots. Without the explicit content of the owner or families involved. They do not hold the consent or legal authority to include names , dates and physical locations and other records without that general consent. #2 ~ They have no legal right to take ownership of your rightful property or what's rightfully your family , nor allow a stranger , 3rd party to manage that specific property or memorial or even be allowed to merge that memorial !!! They have no legal right to do such , just because we submit information to them , does not give them the right to make it their property. #3 ~ Your administration is sick and should be sued and taken out on the streets and tossed , your are rubbish who have [gamified] a platform and turned it into a leaderboard , racing to log millions of entries , many of which are bogus. You are a disgust and discredit , disrespecting the deceased , as you are leaving families horrified to find that strangers have harvested their relative's death for [points] online. #4 ~ Memorial Hoarding should be a crime !! You've got tons of power-hungry hoarders with thousands and thousands of memorial who are unwilling to transfer ownership status to the legal and rightful family owners. #5 ~ You profit off of the dead !!! bastards !!! Owned by Ancestry.com and are funded by advertising and is a disgust you are generating revenue from the deaths of loved ones. You should be heavily criticized and slapped in your faces for cluttering deeply personal memorials with intrusive, flashing advertisements and profiting off of it !! #6 ~ Severe inaccuracies , bad data , mismanagement , a stupid director/president who doesn't know his butthole from his elbows and this entire website should be reported , shut down and criminally sued for what it's doing. Above all else you are "stealing" people's property you have no rightful claim to. This needs to be addressed and put to a stop. You have no legal right to make a database of memorials and claim ownership to something that isn't rightfully yours. Allow the rightful families and people to own and memorialize their own loved ones. You've allowed this website to get out of control because you can't even manage a lemonade stand. You've turned Find A Grave into a joke !

Find a grave has Stolen all my documents & Photos that i placed on that site. Then they blocked my account from uploading photos & documents all together stating the photos are not the right photos for FAG. I complained to useless Fag & the lying staff said everything is good & you can upload photos, which was a complete lie, the account had become useless. People place information on that site Not knowing that they are stealing all of your family information photos/documents & selling it on ancestry. The staff at FAG are nothing but a bunch of Disrespecting Useless Liars benefiting from employment through the public's information. This site FAG should be avoided at all cost & the Government needs to shut it down. I complained once again to those USELESS FAG Members & they deleted my account & stole all my Documents/photos & stole all the memorials i created of my family & refused to delete the memorials i created & they even stooped as low to block my emails. This FAG Site should never be allowed on line. Never use this site or Never give these Useless thieves any family information. minus 10 stars. A USELESS STEALING THIEVING COMPANY

Find a Grave can be a useful tool for tracing your ancestry. Like any site, it's chocked full of errors and can be misleading. My biggest gripe about Find a Grave are managers of memorials, who are more concerned with the number of memorials they manage versus maintaining them. When an individual is permitted to manager more than 10,000 memorials, it becomes a full-time job handling edit suggestions efficiently. It's very sad when quantity is more appealing than quality.

Would not let me write a few kind words for Theodor W. Mayer. They kept interrupting, with other options, until I just gave up. This is the second time i tried in the past several years. Too bad so many people have nothing written about them. Nothing. No wonder, huh?Tedious interruptions, and steps. WHY????? Why try to manipulate what people write? It hurts a persons concentration. I am VERY OLD!!!

Dealing with this site is beyond frustrating!! Trying to resolve an issue is a complete joke.If you try to contact customer service all you get is a standard form email with a link that is no help whatsoever. It has also become very competitive and there seems to be some definite favoritism on famous memorials.

My family memorials have been stolen by a stranger. I am about to remove findagrave as a soutce for my Ancestry tree. Findagrave has become a desecrator of graves. The people stealing the family memorials of others are beneath contempt.If Paul Noyes of the USA would return my grandfather’s memorial to me it would be appreciated. But findagrave appears to have neither morals nor compassion nor good conscience.

This site is a great resource for family history. I am a volunteer and go out of my way to record memorials and have uploaded thousands. These are found in public records, churchyards and cemeteries, so nothing is being violated. I receive numerous requests from people around the world to visit and record their relatives memorials local to me. If they want to manage them, then I am more than happy to transfer ownership. If I end up with just my family memorials and all the others are transferred to their family members, then I have done my job. Many people have helped me with photos, so I help others. I've requested to manage family merionals that others have uploaded and have never had an issue. Customer services are extremely helpful and reply within a couple of days. The few here complaining just do not understand how useful this site is for family research. People trying to get family members removed are just short sited. If i ever receive a request to remove a relative, I'll be more than happy to. At the end of the day, it'll be you and your future descendants loss. This is a great resource to document memorials before they are lost to time. I come across many that are unreadable or rubble which is sad. Their relatives have taken time to choose a memorial and write a meaningful epitath, so to document them for future generations is a must.
