William S. Lawson was born and died in Ohio and was buried in Glen Haven Memorial Cemetery, Clark County. Now Billion Graves shows him buried in Roseland Cemetery
8200 W National Rd. Berkley, Oakland, Michigan,. United States His wife's memorial has also been moved and it seems that there is no way to correct it. If you have to be paid to create memorials you aren't in the right frame of mind to be doing it. When using Find A Grave you can communicate with other users to correct errors. Billion Graves is just another money grabber. A user caused the error possibly by linking a wrong person but it's BillionGraves that prevents the correction.

For a year I subscribed and I've never gotten one result. I thought I had canceled before my year...
Having been a subscriber to this online service, and using it which is ok but nothing flash when...
Hmm... I am unsure where you are getting this information, as BillionGraves does not show a William Dawson in the Roseland Cemetery. We have William S. Lawson listed in Glen Haven Memorial Cemetery born: 1875 and died 1951. It would be very difficult to have his stone in Ohio, as the photo was taken with the app. (Our app marks the GPS location.)
I too use both websites as I am a researcher. On Find A Grave, I have to ask an individual who created the record to change it. This sounds easy, but sometimes people refuse to correct information. On BillionGraves, I can go in and change any record information myself. This is the difference. When there is a problem, such as improper links, or cemeteries without boundaries, we can usually address these types of issues for paid customers within 24 hours. For free customers, this may take a bit longer. (Usually no more than 72 hours.) We do have a paid site, with more tools, but we also offer the free side of our site as well.
The major difference is that we are a small independent company that creates records by GPS tagging. Find A Grave is run by Ancestry, a large corporation. Some of their records have GPS, but a vast majority do not.
