All comment/feedback/help requests within the Gravestone Photographic Resource for the name BRIGGS
Thomas Ruben BriggsAmazed to find this gravestone after Googling his name on a whim. He was my mothers, father and I have fond memories of him when I was young. I hope to visit the grave soon.
CommentMany thanks for the photograph. This is an invaluable resource as I live a long way from my ancestors graves and cannot easily investigate them myself.
Photo downloadThanks for the very useful image. John and Ann Briggs are the maternal great-great grandparents of my daughter-in-law. Ann married john as Ann Parnell (her step-father's surname) although her birth name was Ann Nurse. Her father's name is not given on her birth certificate.
The image also confirmed the date of death of their son Wilfred Briggs. Also on the image is Wilfred's sister Mary who died aged 2 in 1885 (I think) but the image is not clear enough to make out the details. Can you help with this?
Again, many thanks. Paul.
Wonderful discovery!I discovered this web site purely by chance - what a wonderful resource! I will now visit the grave of my Great Grandparents, which I didn't know existed - I only discovered who my Great Grandparent were very recently. When I retire, I will add to this resource by photographing and recording graves in cemeteries I visit.
Thank you to whomever added my Great Grandparents headstone. John and Ann Briggs - nee Parnell
