| POTTER | Husband of Elizabeth | If you read the inscription carefully you will note that the Thomas Potter mentioned comes from Manchester. This is indeed the case and he is mentioned in the context of the burial of his wife Elizabeth. He, himself, went on to live until 1845 and was buried with his second wife in Ardwick Cemetery - vault 498. The only other person buried in this grave is Lucy Potter the infant daughter of Thomas's brother, William. See my previous comment. | 24/03/2012 | 2451 |

| WINCHESTER | William Albert Winchester | Firstly, my apologies for the delay in thanking you for the image. As you may know, family history research goes in fits and starts (at least it does with me). I had intended to thank you as soon as the image arrived, but I stored it for later use and then promptly forgot about it. For anyone else researching the Winchesters, William Albert was/is a distant relative from Bristol. | 13/02/2012 | 2333 |
| BINNS | Gravestone at FEWSTON, Yorkshire - BINNS/HOLMES/HODGSON | Thank you Charles for your fast service that my mother Ilma received. My mom is in her 80's and we came across your site while we were researching our family. I noticed that the link you send in your emails is not "live" meaning you can't just click on it and it takes you to the photo. I had to email my mom and tell her how to copy and paste the info. into her browser. Anyway, it worked. My mom is lives in Yorkshire and I am in Canada so between us we did okay! Again, thank you for your hard work. Jan | 13/02/2012 | 2334 |

I live in Australia, but have a couple of distant cousins who I am in contact with in England who is also researching the family tree. I hope to visit the churchyards when I next visit England.
Furthermore, thank your dedicated volunteers who have put in the time and effort so that we can have access to these important monumental images.
