What name are you looking for?

Have you checked with the cemetery office that there is a headstone?

Hi,

At a cemetery where I am involved in a project a gentleman left a small laminated card on the gravestone with his name and contact details. 

Stating this was his relatives grave and was researching his family tree and would like to make contact with any other family members to exchange information and photo's.

It worked!!   Visiting relative made contact after seeing card!

Might be an idea to do the same!

Sorry - but how will taking photos of it identify who the person is?   I visit my grandparents grave at Anfield cemetary approx 5 times a year to maintain it and put flowers on it - but nobody could possibly know my identity from just taking a photo of the grave
