Keeping a family history readable, by the coming generations for whom they were carved. Upon learning that my family history dated back to Plymouth Bay Colonial times, I started some research. When I visited some of the very old cemeteries I found headstones of Revolutionary War soldiers with those little flags stuck in the ground but the stones were often covered with so mush moss and lichens they essentially became markers of unknown people.
