Thanks Adam, not sure if or how they fit in tree as yet.
What I'm after is from 'hand down' information that a female relative (nee Pearson but don't know which one) who married and lived at  Sunniside was so loved and respected by the community there that when she died they erected a headstone and it was on the way up to the church. However it is possibly one that has been removed by the council - do they record the information from the stones before they are flattened or removed, have you any idea of that? thanks, and regards, Genie.

Hello Genie. I have found another one for you with both Craggs and pearson on the stone.
I did the graveyard in tow sections and this was put in the overflow section by mistake.
Hope it helps.

In loving memory of John Craggs of Satley Grove, who died march/8/1885 aged 68 years.
Ann widow of the above and wife of John Pearson, who died march/3/1896 aged 72 years.

As for gravestones that have been laid flat. The council put a notice on the gravestone saying that is going to be made safe.
What actually happens is that the gravestone is usually pushed over into the grave area and that of course means face down. They did not take any notes of the inscription and with most of the gravestones that were laid/pushed flat I am afraid they will never be lifted again.

Hello!

I saw your post on Moralle. I wondered if you had anything else??


Thank you

[Adamand]

Hello . If you quote the post number it makes it easier for me reply to your request.
I do have a few other gravestones :- Crook, Tow Law, and a catholic marriage for Moralee at Crook. If you require the marriage you will have to start another "subject" because I do not mix either graveyards/cemeteries and marriages.
