We are working to bring new technology….into the field or cemetery to facilitate preservation.
I guess you could say we are “Preservation Innovators!”

We can now see through time & grime to document before cleaning or just to answer the question of “Whose stone?”

Stay tuned! More to come!!

This is a Cemetery Preservation Project in Western North Carolina. The earliest burial in this Family cemetery was in the 1790’s.
The property had been maintained “as best as they could” through many generations an numerous storms. It was due to one of these storms that my assistance was solicited. I repaired a badly crush headstone (big pine tree fell on it) and the cleaning of another historic headstone.
The stewards of the cemetery requested my assistance in creating a 15 to 20 foot buffer around the cemetery involving the removal of dense vegetation (heavy briars and privet) and the removal of downed pine trees.
 I was fortunate to have the contact information and a well developed friendship with Mr. Andy Lawhon of Lawhon properties who using a Kabota skid steer with forestry mulching attachment make quick work of the buffer zone. You can see his efforts below. If you were in Western North Carolina/the greater Catawba County area, I need mulching/forestry, mulching assistance, I highly recommend Andy!
