Introduction

This page contains a list of all the entries for the family name HANCOCK that are held within the Gravestone Photographic Resource online database.

A family name is where there is a surname as the last name of the forenames. This was a common practice before the middle of the 20th century.

It is quite likely that there are also entries available for alternative spellings of this name. It is very easy for you to check to see if there are any alternative spellings: you just need to look at the page that shows all the names listed under the starting letter (H in this case) of the surname you are interested in.

If you click on a particular name or GPR reference number above you will see details of what information is held for that particular grave monument. If there is an image available then you will be able to order a free copy of it.

Please note that all ages and dates of birth in red have been calculated and are probably not on the monument.

You should treat the calculated dates of birth with caution as the ages given on monuments are often inaccurate. The dates and ages on many monuments are also often hard to read. It is therefore important to use the dates as guides as they may be incorrect.

The same person may appear many times in the above list. This is because a person can easily be listed on many different monuments. For instance, a person could be listed on their own grave as well as on the gravestone monuments of their children and their spouse. Occasionally names will be duplicated because the monument has in error been photographed and indexed twice.

Where a relationship is shown as unknown, this usually means that parts of the monument are illegible and relationship cannot be read.

Where no relationship is given this means that this is normally the first name on the monument. All the relationships on any particular monument relate to this first named individual.

In most cases images are available. However sometimes they will unavailable. In many cases this is because although images have been taken they were unfortunately lost when the resource suffered a major computer fault and not all the images could be recovered.

HANCOCK FAMILY RESEARCH
Dear Sir I have just requested an image of the grave of my Great grandparents (Sardius and Mary Hancock) as part of a family history project. I am also seeking the location (and image,if possible) of other members of my family, notably Dulcebella Sofia Hancock (nee Tharp) who died 1/2/1858 in Sturry, Canterbury, Kent. May I ask how extensive are your records? I have visited Sturry Parish Church (St Nicholas?), but can not locate her resting place. Charles Hancock (1821 - 1900), my Great great grandfather, is also buried at Sturry, together with his second wife, Mary. Dulcebella was his first wife. Any assistance would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Thank you
Hi there- you already sent the image- didn't receive the email but have just seen the image viewer on the website and can see the enlarged photo on there. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this! Am very grateful for your time and effort! Couldn't see a way to say thank you so until after sending a new request but thought I'd send it via here instead. Barbara

Charles, thank you for the photograph of Thomas Parker's gravestone. The inscriptions on the stone have verified a family connection. Your volunteer efforts to provide these photographs and information is greatly appreciated. Regards, Mark
