Original skull

When I visit Connecticut, I still see the graves of my parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, etc., back to the 1600's. Americans use cemeteries for much of their genealogical research. There is much history in grave yards.
That's great to find your relatives's resting places, as I visited my great-great-grandparents' in Wales and England too.

Good for genealogical family research to get the full details to make their family tree completed, as it is not cheap to get a history research for death's certificated as I used to work for Register of Births, Deaths and Marriages!

Can you find out what the Germans do with the bodies after the contract was expired??


I wish to tell you what I know but ... :dunno:

I asked my hubby and co-workers about this. They are also :dunno: as well...

I remember my hubby told me the story before but he repeated his story yesterday.

One early of morning, my hubby was around 16 years old and went with his parents and brother to respect their Grandmother at grave. Suddenly he saw excavator with mask cover his nose and mouth to get coffin out of grave and put coffin on the large metal box... He described me how horrible smell etc and the corpse's leg was out of "damage" coffin when excavator carried coffin to metal box. My hubby's mother told him and his brother to not look them but show their respect on their Grandma's grave stone. He never forget about this... :Ohno:

I read the link but it doesn't explain what they do with the remains after 20 years. Also, what happens to the grave markers (tombstones)?

Hubby and I have bought and paid for our plots, and our daughter and son-in-law bought their's also, so we have them all in the same place. They are permanent; that is, no one else can use them.

When I visit Connecticut, I still see the graves of my parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, etc., back to the 1600's. Americans use cemeteries for much of their genealogical research. There is much history in grave yards.


Yes I know it doesn't explain what they do with the remains after 20 or more years... :dunno:

I tried to google German website to find out what they do with remains but none... I will let you know when I find out.

Yes, we have old cemeteries here in Germany when anyone who have money to extend their cemeteries properties.

We bought property to bury Great Aunt's urne for $1,500 for 10 years contract. (Accord German law, we are not allow to bring Urne to home or anywhere but bury grave or sea).


I thought this link would interesting why muslim are against German's burial law.
German burial law, which demands that remains be exhumed after between 15 and 30 years and that grave stones be removed after this period of time

Liebling - perhaps your Doctor tell you a joke? :giggle:

I saw my own eyes that it's original skull at closet with glass... (protection glass) I don't think my doctor make fun of her dead Grandma. It would be disrespect if she joked me about her Grandma's skull but she didn't. She told me with her serious impression that it's her Grandma's skull and said that her Grandma is well-known dentist around Germany.

Yes its same here in Australia, it is harder to trace the owners since we knows its very unlikely for anyone to stay in the same address for 20 years plus (some states saying 25 to 50 years), as they forgot to up-dated, this not always prove to be fruitful, and then the government put a public notice in the newspaper, throughout the 12 month period for the right owner/s to come forward, if no-one comes forward, they will re-sell the burial plot to another person. If the right owner comes forward, they can extension to 5-10 or 15 years lease.

Your link is not working.

Yes, authories will write a letter to inform us either we want to extend cremetey property or not before they remove it. We are not allow to get her urne to home... but go back to...???????? :dunno: We still find out what/where they do with Great Aunt's urne after 10 years contract expired. It's still 4 years go...

Yes, it's same here in Germany but they have to pay the charge to extend between 10 to 20 years... Extend burial is expensive than cremation. MIL's burial is still in 10 years go but I don't know either FIL want to extend it or not... It will cost him $5,000 or more to extend the 10 or 20 years. He said to us one day after death of MIL that he do not want his body to bury but go direct to "urne collection" (we don't know what they do with "urne collection") after cremation, not bury his urne... He rejected to bury his urne in his wife's graveyard. We suspect "urne collection" mean is throw ashes to rubbish bin or what? :dunno: Germans donate their bodies to scientists for gratis... I noticed more Germans donated their bodies to save cremetry fee...
 
America is very fortunate to have been blessed with plentiful land that hasn't been heavily settled.... yet. When Americans think, "but our graves are forever!" we really aren't remembering that we've only been here since the 1600's. Eur-Asia has been occupied since the earliest recorded periods of history and do not have vast tracts of land to simply throw away for dead people. So much land is wasted on sentimental value. Is that really a valuable part of humanity? Or should we be able to put that land to better use?

No, we are not allow to keep bones after burial removal but we don´t know where our family doctor get her Grandma´s skull from. My hubby guess it could be from WWII? :dunno:
I don't understand. Germans aren't allowed to keep urns with ashes in their houses but they can keep and display actual skulls?

We still find out what/where they do with Great Aunt's urne after 10 years contract expired. It's still 4 years go...
That's awful! Why don't they tell you what happened? What is the big secret?

I understand about the land problem. I'm rather bothered by the fact that no one seems to know what happens to the bodies, or maybe they don't care. Also, if it is just a situation of not enough land, why do they not allow people to keep urns in their homes?

Cemeteries are not just "sentimental" and historic sites. They are also green spaces in urban areas, a place of tranquility away from the hurried city streets.

Some people could say that national parks are "vast tracts of land to simply throw away for" tourists. "Or should we be able to put that land to better use?" Maybe drill for oil, dig for coal, clear cut the timber, build a Walmart? I guess that would be more "useful".

Umm...I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you mad! Thanks for showing me what it means
You were not alone in not knowing what "Soylent Green" meant. I didn't know what it was either :)

I have have seen that before but not whole. Thanks for providing me the title that I have not thought of it. Moreover, I emailed directly to SCIFI company to see if they may plan to show Soylent Green.

If any of you wish to see the movie called Soylent Green, you may email SCIFI Channel company at feedback@scifi.com...

Perhaps the garden's "Blood & Bone" meal fertilizer is part from the corpse??? :laugh2:
 
Interesting Liebling

I remmy when i was in science class way back in high school time. In science classroom there was an full skeleton of an girl (it isnt shown in class everyday, but only if we need to learn the names of bones etc). It is real, science teacher told all of us students the story about this girl etc.

I cant remmy the full story (coz it was 10 years ago, well 8 years ago since i left high school), but only in bits i can remmy, an girl (age around 20s something or more) was very sick and she willing to give her skeleton to school when she passed away, it was her own choice.
