I’ve done this a few times including members of my family who passed in the 1800s. It always felted strange knowing this is my family from over 200 years ago and I can visit their final resting place even today. Has anyone else done this and what’s the oldest headstone you’ve visited?
Yes actually, before the pandemic my family went on a trip to England for my dad’s birthday, and part of the trip was visiting my great×3 grandfather’s grave, and seeing the house that was in the family for over 150 years. We actually got to sit down and talk with the current owners, who still had the original deed with his name on it.
I honestly have no idea where my ancestors died past my great grandparents 🤔

Not yet. I don’t believe in an afterlife or that they’re watching over us, so before I started my family tree, I didn’t see the point.
Now that I’m researching them, I want to get the details of the grave and see where they were buried. Also, my great grandfather died during the first World War and was buried abroad. I found researching his grave to be quite interesting, and I’m going to visit the memorial to him and the other members of the military who died during the war.
No. I live in a different country than my forefathers
I’d love to but unfortunately Israel bulldozed the entire village.
