Title: Headstone Picture?
Post by: jenr on Wednesday 30 March 11 12:03 BST (UK)
I have had some research done for me from the Huntingdonshire Archives. There is mention for a couple of my ancestors under the heading Bluntisham Meeting House and Burial Ground Monumental Inscriptions.
A stone erected for William WHITE died 1857 and Gifford WHITE died 1844
I am wondering or maybe hoping that there would be pictures available of the stones?
Thank you

Maybe a friendly mod will move this to the Huntingdonshire board - someone there might be in a position to help :)

I have checked the churchyard and found the gravestones, they are in a poor condition I'm afraid and hard to read - I will try and take a photo when they aren't in the direct sunshine and send to you. The attached shows the headstone for Gifford.
