Find a GraveReviews of findagrave.com

There are some managers on Find a Grave that graciously transfer your family memorials quickly and without a problem and that is greatly appreciated. Unfortunately there seem to be a lot of memorial collectors who refuse to release a memorial with a family connection like they are supposed to. These memorial managers go so far as to post erroneous information, control their version of history, pull information from real researchers and post it to memorials as they see fit and lie to admins when they are called out on their bad behavior. Myself and family members have experienced every one of the bad experiences identified in reviews on trust pilot. There is no accountability and on line support is incapable in many cases to do anything.

Requested a memorial transfer for great-grandfathers brother - the memorial maker has the wrong information - tired to get him to change the info and he would not - he is not related to my great-grandfathers brother or any of the 85 K that he manages - he will not transfer to me - support at find a grave said no too - I am ticked - 24 yrs a member of Ancestry and almost 16 yrs on Find a Grave -

Zero stars. Everything I've read in these reviews is something I've experienced multiple times. Horrible staff, vindictive people who hoard memorials and set out to be ruthless with their agendas. You can't trust the information to be correct either. This site should be shut down. 70% + give it one star. THAT SPEAKS VOLUMES!!!!

If you can't find a grave, you should not offer this service.

I recently submitted a correction for a memorial on Find A Grave. The contributor responded in a hostile manner and told me to stop contacting him. When I told him I was going to send a message to find a grave to let them know that this contributor was providing incorrect information and would not research and correct it on their website, I was threatened by the contributor. I have closed my account. This website is very unreliable.

A contributor assumed it was ok to change our father's information, based on a document which is based on a lie. If someone is doing research, you need to follow through all they way. When we found this lie, we traced it and it was for a complete different person. I am closing all my accounts and have stopped genealogy.

Who would have thought that there would be trolls and generally nasty people on Find a Grave. Such as the likes you find on Facebook or Twitter. There is no help from support when there is genuine harrasment and I have sent many emails reporting abuse of terms and conditions, violation of intellectual property and nothing is said or done. A member can put incorrect information about a relative and refuse to correct it when suggested, they steal original photos and edit them and upload them as their own. I honestly can't remember the last time I saw such gross abuse on a volunteer website especially when it is about genealogy. A serious dedicated support team is required if Find a Grave thinks it has a place. Really shows Ancestry.com in such a bad light. If only I had read all the complaints about Find a Grave, I don't think I would have joined.
