    How can I (if possible) find grave sites from the 1600s here in the US?

    On second thought, that site is of limited value.  I think it is better to search by state or county, at least at the beginning.  This might help:http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gsr&GSln=Arnold&GSiman=1&GSst=42&

    I was going to say, check with your county if you are looking for someone specific, they probably have a register.

    I have a name, date of death, and town.  I was just wondering what they did with graves back then especially if the place is now a big city (like Boston).  Would they move the graves or just build over them?  Has anyone ever sucessfully used that findagrave website?
