THORNEWhat a good ideaI have been doing family research since 2002 and due to Internet have made a lot of discoveries. But to be able to gain copies of gravestones in Devon was something I did not consider possible. I have enough difficulty getting Australian ones !

GIBSONApparent contradiction of Whitby,St Mary headstones.I have photographed a headstone in Whitby churchyard many times in the last 27 years. The text begins... To the Memory of Mary the wife of George GIBSON,Tailor who died May 20th,1803 aged 81 years. Also the above Geo. Gibson who died Feb.26th 1805... Are we dealing with the same or different headstones? .... more

Thomas RobinsonI found a photograph of a grave on this site and requested a copy. Unfortunately it did not further my research at all but the speed of reply to my request was impressive and I intend to keep a book mark for the future. I cannot supply any photographs of any Robinson graves because although I have many deaths certificates, I\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'ve yet to find an actual grave. Maybe this is because my relatives seem to have been non conformist over a long period.

STORERHelp PleaseHello Charles I requested a copy of the headstone for John Storer which I have not received. The Image number is 9996 and the grave monument 247054. The church is St. Mary’s the Virgin, Whitby, Yorkshire. There is not a thumbnail image of the monument, but I understand that not all thumbnails are displayed at the moment. I have checked my spam. Please can you advise? Thank you. Carol .... more

HOWEWhat a brilliant siteThank you for allowing me to see the gravestone of a friend's great grandparents Arthur & Kate Howe at Woodditton,Cambs. Shame the stone was so weathered that anything but their names was unreadable! I'll certainly be using this site again.

HUNTERHunters of Blackness(Dundee) & Balskelly ( Parish of Barry)Thank you for the photograph. Hunter is a common name in Forfarshire known correctly as the County of Angus. Alexander Hunter bought the lands of Balskelly in 1810, it seems he was known as one of the Hunters of Blackness.These Hunters are a cadet family of the Hunters of Burnside. Any information would be helpful- Kind Regards Brian.

JENNINGSGreat photosAppreciate so much that I have these photos of family graves, which also confirmed my belief that Uncle Thomas Jennings died in Instow. He was my grgrandfather's brother. Pictures make them 'come to life', and gives lasting proof that they walked this world. Appreciate also that I didn't need to make the long drive to get these photos. Thanks so much Charles Sale!!

BOLLINGTONThankyou so much!Just couldn't believe it when I found this site. It led me to my Grandmother and Grandfather's grave near Cannock, West Midlands. They both died young so I never knew them, but have been researching their lives. We visited last week and found it instantly. Will endeavour very soon to record our village church gravestones here in Tarrant Keynston, Dorset.
