My son has recently started a paranormal group for the Omaha/Council Bluffs area, Nevermore Paranormal Research and Investigation. Click here to go to their MySpace.com page.

Heart United for Animals

Please visit the Hearts United for Animals site at the link above, a local no-kill animal shelter, and donate some dollars to this wonderful organization or adopt one of the animals they have rescued. Our Sweetie, an adorable rat terrier, is a former Hearts United rescuee. We are forever grateful that they took her in as a stray hit by a car, paid to have her broken leg set, and allowed us to adopt her.

The Douglas County Historical Society, an excellent place to go for history resources on Omaha and the surrounding vicinity.

The Sarpy County GenWeb has quite alot of information on genealogical resources, as well as a complete list of Sarpy County cemeteries.

The Douglas County GenWeb site has numerous links to many areas of Omaha/Douglas County historical interest.

The Political Graveyard is a humongous site with information about the burial locations for politicians of today and the past, and it’s been around since the infancy of the internet.  Some of the information on The Graveyards of Omaha that pertains to politicians comes from this site, and I’m indebted to their research.

My thanks to Dennis Partridge, who maintains http://www.accessgenealogy.com, http://www.surnameweb.org, and http://www.partridgenest.com.

Also, the Graveyards of Chicago is a magnificent site, and one I’d like to model my own site after.  Don’t miss this beautiful and informative website.

Find A Grave, the ultimate source for burial information on the internet.

Where the Stars are Buried has many excellent pictures of the cemeteries in Hollywood.

Hollywood Underground and -

Beneath Los Angeles, two excellent sites for celebrity graves.

 

I find that the older I get, the more I protest against war of any kind, and I am loath to add to our own local cemeteries in this manner. Here are a few sites that point out the warmongers among this country's leaders - vote them out of office at the next opportunity:

Flight of the Chickenhawks

The Chickenhawks

Too Stupid to be President

 

With the current atrocities going on in Iraq, the websites below are of major interest to me. Please pass them along to anyone you know that would also be interested in what they have to say.
