RUDDICKGreat service providedThis site is great,it provides a valuable service to so many. Without this kind of dedication to keeping the memorials to our lost loved ones we would be losing so much. Along with the helpful pictures kindly provided free of charge,the birth and death dates and names are there to help people in their family research or confirmation of that research. Thanks.

WATERSFrederick Gilbert WatersThis is a fantastic resource and I was delighted to find my great grandparents' gravestone. I will certainly start taking photos of gravestones and sending them in.

SIEVWRIGHTTHANKSMany thanks to Michelle Roberts for photographing Dean Cemetery in Edinburgh (and others) and to Charles for sending the photos and administering this excellent site.

GUNNJohn Henry & Annie GunnThank you so much for sending me an enlarged photo, I really do appreciate it. My dad was excited about seeing his grandparents grave for the first time. I look forward to the day when I can view it in person.

quote of the week

Quote of the week

This project is so worthwhile, even for the likes of us who live close to many of the cemeteries of interest. Those cemeteries located further away are a real boon and to make them accessible for those who live overseas is well worth it. Finally, to preserve the image before the elements take their toll is very important for future generations. - IN
