I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. RESACC_110918_19.JPG: Resaca Confederate Cemetery: Resaca Cemetery is one of the two oldest Confederate burial grounds in the South and oldest in Georgia. Miss Mary Green and her sister Miss Pyatt Green started Resaca Cemetery on 2-1/2 acres of land donated by their father, Colonel John F Green. Miss Mary and Miss Pyatt were so grieved by all of the random and shallow graves hastily dug that they decided to relocate the bodies. With the help of their household servants they moved the gallant dead to the plot of land that has become known as Resaca Confederate Cemetery. By October 1866, all four hundred and fifty Confederates had been moved. The first dedication service was held on October 25, 1866. In 1925, the stone wall was built under the joint direction of the United Confederate Veterans and the United Daughters of the Confederacy of Gordon County.

Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.) I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
Connection Not Secure messages? Those warnings you get from your browser about this site not having secure connections worry some people.

But this site doesn't collect any personal information so SSL is not necessary. Life's good!
