Participate in the ‘GeneaGraves Weekend’ on November 15-16, 2014

Posted by Jean-Yves on Nov 7, 2014

A few weeks ago, Geneanet has launched the GeneaGraves mobile app for Android and iOS. With this app, you can easily take pictures of graves and upload them into Geneanet. Then, these pictures are free for every Geneanet member.

Pictures can also be attached to any person in the Geneanet family tree. That show our involvement in the free and collaborative genealogy.

To formally launch this new service, we will organise the ‘GeneaGraves Weekend’ for all of our members worldwide. On November 15-16, 2014, take pictures of graves in a nearby cemetery!

How to participate?

1. Install the GeneaGraves app for Android and iOS on your mobile or tablet.

 

2. Go to a nearby cemetery, launch the app, select a project or create a new one, then take as many pictures as you want.

3. Once you’re back home, upload the pictures into your Geneanet account via a Wi-Fi access point. These pictures will be free for every Geneanet member.

If you can’t go to a cemetery or if you don’t have a mobile/tablet, you can participate in the collaborative index of pictures which have been uploaded into Geneanet.

See if your nearby cemetery is not already listed on Geneanet.

Participate in the ‘GeneaGraves Weekend’ and help to grow our free database of tombstones.
