The Graveyard Rabbit Student!

As a member of the Association of Graveyard Rabbits, this blog is devoted to promoting cemeteries and their preservation, burial customs and traditions, transcribing tombstones, and the general study of cemeteries. I believe that cemeteries are an important part of our history and genealogy. By studying these cemeteries, we can better understand our ancestors and their cultures and lives. By preserving these cemeteries, we are giving future generations a chance to learn about the past.

Edward is the brother of my great grandfather, William Fredrick Harney. He was born April 29th, 1883 in Indiana. He moved to Seattle and raised his family there. He died on December 8th, 1944.
