About this webinar

Si les pierres tombales pouvaient parler, elles auraient beaucoup d’histoires à raconter. Mais elles ne le peuvent pas, c’est pourquoi BillionGraves est la meilleure alternative. BillionGraves est la plus grande base de données au monde sur les cimetières, reliée à un système GPS. Lorsque vous prenez des photos avec l’application BillionGraves sur votre téléphone, chaque pierre tombale est automatiquement marquée d’une position GPS. Les données sont ensuite transcrites par des bénévoles, reportées sur des plans de cimetières et conservées sur les sites web BillionGraves, FamilySearch et MyHeritage pour des millions de familles à travers le monde et pour les générations futures.

Les sous-titres et la voix de cette vidéo ont été doublés en français à l’aide de l’IA.

10 Things You Don’t Know About Cemeteries
Genealogists LOVE cemeteries but we don’t always know the history behind them. When we know the history, types, and traditions of cemeteries we can do better research that helps us understand our ancestor’s final resting place. In this presentation we will take a look at the history of US cemeteries, what you would expect to find depending on time and place, and where you can find records beyond the usual places.

Silent Storytellers: A Genealogist’s Guide to Cemetery Photography
They stand there behind those gates: marble and granite memorials to those who went before. The stones in those cemeteries and the stories they tell for our families are of crucial importance to genealogists. How can we best get access to the land where they stand, and photograph them to capture the stories they tell?

Les sous-titres et la voix de cette vidéo ont été doublés en français à l'aide de l'IA. Ils se tiennent là derrière ces portes : des mémoriaux en marbre et en granit pour ceux qui ont précédé. Les pierres dans ces cimetières et les histoires qu'elles racontent pour nos familles sont d'une importance cruciale pour les généalogistes. Comment pouvons-nous accéder au mieux à la terre où ils se tiennent et les photographier pour capturer les histoires qu'ils racontent ?
