As “Dr. Graveyard”, I am available for helping those who need help with their historic cemeteries with the following:

As “Dr. Graveyard,” I want to provide a service whose main objective is to protect, preserve and restore our historic cemeteries for future generations as well as showing how cemeteries can be the educational, cultural, genealogical, political and historical points of historic cemeteries and why these “outdoor museums” should be saved. By showing proper cleaning and restoration methods of restoring and cleaning historic tombstones and monuments, we hope to eventually share these correct  restoration methods with future volunteers.  In the State of Texas alone, there are almost 50,000 historic cemeteries but not enough volunteers who are trained to help preserve, document and possibly save a historic cemetery. Hopefully, the “Dr. Graveyard” Facebook and Dr. Graveyard web site will give these volunteers the instructional guidance in an understandable way, to implement a plan towards saving historic cemeteries in their area of Texas. But most importantly, we have to stand together in order to protect these historic sites  from destruction made by some land owners, land developers, vandals and the environment. Please let me know if your cemetery is in trouble so we can post it on the Dr. Graveyard Facebook as well as on my  Dr. Graveyard web site. If we generate a united political voice by making our Texas Cemetery laws stronger, or just making sure the laws we have are enforced, our political actions may prevent the demise of these archeological landscapes which are our beloved historic burial grounds.
