Sentimental Sunday: Mary Emily Conner (1837-1913) 

I made a request for a photo of the stone. 

This Sentimental Sunday, I am thinking of the great great grandmother I never knew, and a man who knelt patiently in the grass one autumn day to provide her granddaughter a photo of her grave.
Oh, he does sound wonderful! I'm heartglad he connected with you.

I had a similar experience with a lady up in Grey Co, Ontario. She'd posted some pics of the cemetery my ggg grandparents are buried in, along with a grave she didn't know if was a relative. When I wrote back that it was their eldest daughter, she went back, cleaned the stone more (and unburied a bit of it to check if more of the inscription was still intact) and sent me pictures. AND noticed some disturbed dirt on the other side of my ggg grandfather's stone, investigated, and FOUND my ggg grandmother's stone, in pieces! I was just blown away by her kindness and taking so much time for a stranger. <3
