Introduction

This page contains a list of all the entries for the maiden name OWSTON that are held within the Gravestone Photographic Resource online database. 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 (O in this case) of the maiden name 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 person. If there is an image available then you will be able to order a free copy of it.

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.

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. Often 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.

Kirbymoorside, Yorkshrire England
Dear Gravestone Photos, I thought that I should let you know that the village of Kirbymoorside has been spelt wrongly on your website and shows as Kirkbymoorside. There are some comments that I could include against some of my deceased family members which would to help others investigating their ancestors (there were a lot of marriages of 1st and 2nd cousins - this was after my ancestors moved to Hull!) which would definitely help anyone looking into the Owston, Stephenson, Vasey and Smith branches in the North Yorkshire area between 1720 - 1900. If there is a facility I am happy to input this information as I really enjoy genealogy and have done so for the past 12 years. Best Wishes, Sandra

Kirkbymoorside can be spelt different ways. From Ryedale on the net:- http://www.ryedale.co.uk/ryedale/Kirkbymoorside/kirkbymoorside.html Kirkbymoorside or Kirbymoorside as it is sometimes spelled is midway between Helmsley and Pickering. There is some dispute as to the correct spelling but it is usually spelled with the 'k'. The name translates to settlement from the Viking word, 'by', and Kirk means church' so it means settlement with a church. The church still stands in it's modern form half way down the main street. It has some Saxon and Norman fragments in it's masonry. Regards David
