The Gravestone Photographic Resource project is an attempt to provide a much needed free on-line resource for family historians and other researchers.
The GPR is run by Charles Sale. He set it up in 1998 and has written all the code and database routines used by the website.

Besides having grave monument photographs, the GPR also has an image collection of most of its cemeteries, churches and war memorials.
The GPR is run by Charles Sale. He set it up in 1998 and has written all the code used by the website.
In the beginning, Charles did everything but now he has many volunteers who photogaphs cemeteries. These photographs are then used to extract all the names and other details mentioned on the monument.
To make the GPR even better, please think about photographing your local churchyard or cemetery. It is easy to register as a new volunteer.
