Find and read Find a Grave cemeteries. Actions:

• search: cemeteries by name and/or place (needs name, location or locationId); rows give cemeteryId, name, place, memorial and photographed counts, GPS. A place alone lists every cemetery in it (Giles County, Tennessee has about 450). 100 per page at most.

• get: one cemetery (needs cemeteryId): all its names, place, GPS, address, description and history notes, memorial count (the number a memorial search in it returns), photographed and GPS counts. To list or search the people buried in a cemetery use findagrave_memorial search with cemeteryId.

Fetch a memorial or cemetery photo (a gravestone, portrait, obituary clipping, …). Action photo: needs photoId (from findagrave_memorial get/photos) or url (an images.findagrave.com URL). Without outPath the image is returned inline for reading, scaled so its longer side is at most maxSide (default 1600 px). With outPath the original file is written to disk unscaled (unless maxSide is given) and only metadata is returned.

Run a read-only GraphQL query against Find a Grave's own API (https://www.findagrave.com/orc/graphql) for data the other tools do not return. Mutations are refused. Full schema introspection is disabled, but { __type(name: "Memorial") { fields { name } } } lists a type's fields; docs/endpoints.md lists the useful queries and types (memorialsById, memorialSearch, cemeteries, locationsByTypeahead, browse, flowersForMemorial, getPhotos, virtualCemeterySearch). Prefer the other tools: their results are projected to fit and their filters are checked.

Search and read Find a Grave memorials (grave records: dates, burial place, plot, inscription, biography, linked family, photos). Actions:

• search: memorials matching the given criteria; needs at least one of lastName, firstName, location/locationId, cemeteryId, relativeName, text, bio, birthYear, deathYear, famous. Rows give memorialId, name, maidenName, birth/death dates and places, cemetery, plot, veteran/gravePhoto flags, and for text/relativeName/bio searches the passages that matched. Names match exactly by default (nameMatch); women are also found under their maiden name unless includeMaidenName=false. About 360 chars per row, 50 rows per call at most; only the first 10000 results of a search can be reached, so narrow by place or years.

• get: one memorial in full (needs memorialId): name with maidenName separate, birth/death with place ids, burial cemetery and GPS, plot, inscription, bio, veteran, family grouped by the relative's role (parents with father/mother, spouses, children, siblings, halfSiblings — each with its own memorialId to read next), the first photos (photos=count), who created/manages it, the matching Ancestry "Find a Grave Index" record (ancestryRecord: collectionId 60525 + recordId, usable with ancestry_record get), and a ready citation. About 2-15K chars.

• photos: a memorial's photos with captions and contributors (needs memorialId; type filters grave/person/family/other). Read one with findagrave_download.

• flowers: virtual flowers left on the memorial with their notes, which sometimes name relatives (needs memorialId). Find a Grave is user-contributed: dates, family links and bios are a contributor's claims, often without sources; treat them as leads and check the stones in the photos and the records behind them.

Find a Grave's place hierarchy (country → state → county → city), whose ids narrow memorial and cemetery searches. Actions:

• search: places and cemeteries whose name starts like the text (needs name), with locationId, type, full place and cemetery count. Find a Grave ranks these by its own relevance, not by the name, so check the place before using an id.

• get: one place by locationId.

• children: the places directly inside a place (needs locationId): counties of a state, towns of a county.
