Headstone Hunting

The 5th business trip in 3 weeks landed Cody in the land of his ancestors and four fathers (still looking for two of them). In an effort to document and archive the family history of both the Edwards and Hull side of the family, a massive headstone hunting expedition was undertaken. With the help of his parents and a friend, the following cemeteries were searched, scoured and scanned for loved ones:
  • Richmond, UT
  • Lewiston, UT
  • Fairview, ID
  • Robin, ID
  • Marsh Center, ID
  • McCammon, ID
  • Rockland, ID
  • Honeyville, UT
  • Ogden, UT
With a success rate of 98.2%, over 25 headstones were photographed and added to the database of family headstones. These headstone pictures will be added with other photos, stories, biographies and other family history elements being compiled in the aforementioned family history project.
