If you click on a particular church, parish or town name above then you will see details of all the grave monument images that are available for that particular location.
If there is a blank in the relationship column above then it means that this person is the first named individual on the grave monument.
If you are interested in ordering a number of different images from different graves monuments, it may help if you list in grave order so that everyone mentioned on the same monument are listed together.
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.
If there is no burial date then it is likely that they are not buried at this location.
Please note that the GPR records ALL names on monuments.

Really useful resource
You can get really useful information from headstones which was indeed the case here. Thank you for a great resource.
thank you - excellent work - LEAROYD GRAHAM ROBSON
Hi, thanks so very much for the work you're doing! This is an incredible rescource, and very meaningful task - the photos are great! As I am studying from overseas, it's of course particularly essential in our case. Fridaythorpe, Malton, Thixendale, Pocklington, Hunslet, Bridlington, Sledmere, Rillington - these are hardly even the start of a large list of Yorkshire locations we're investigating - ancestor names Graham, Ruston, Robson, Midgley just among several also! Anyone who loves genealogy, or has good knowledge of how to pursue it there specifically - being abroad, centuries and many generations gone, is not so easy - feel free to ask or respond, thanks!
WW1 information about Herbert John ROBSON
Being a volunteer at the National Archives in London I have accessed Captain Robson's WW1 service records and have seen a photograph of the 18th century book he found in France. Researchers might want to access information via the Discovery catalogue using reference WO 374/58654.
Genealogy in a name
Amazing how much genealogy a name and dates can open up. Robert Robson is not very unique but his wife Evelyn Winifred Boys Dickson tells her mothers surname 'Boys' and makes it easy to locate her with her parents John Henry Dickson and her mother Edith Mary Naomi Dickson. Their marriage confirmed the mother's maiden name 'Boys'. So very helpful!
Thanks for this fantastic service.
Grateful thanks
Absolutely wonderful site, thank you so very much.
Thanks
I appreciate your time. The most precious gift God gives us.
