Spooky Cal

I have some rellies who moved to Camberwell in the mid 1800s - think I'll leave looking for their graves until I've got a few weeks to spare

Fantastic idea.

I have just returned from a trip to Cork, Ireland, where I visited many family graves.  Whenever I am back there, which is quite often these days, I can look up graves for anyone.  In the meantime, if anyone wants any grave looked up in North Lancashire/South Lakeland or South Cumbria area, let me know and I would be only too willing to help.

Burial plots online?  YES, in Oz!

A number of Australian cemeteries are online, including the one in the beautiful provincial city where I live.

I wish, how I wish, that this applied to England and Ireland!!!!!

Me too MarieC

Surely if this was the case more people would look after family graves

This idea gets my vote, Celia!  And it probably would have had George Formby's, too...

A great idea! We need a Gravestone Topic on this board, there is many questions about Gravestone Preservation, How to take a digital image of a stone, How to record stones. I have six years of experience in recording Gravestones and could answer a lot of enquires on this board, I have a new web site and still in the early stages of development.

I do Cemetery lookups and take photos of Headstones  for the decedent of the buried.(See Earlie posting)Also do M.I.So I know how important this hobby is to others.


I have now received a P.M with an offer of help in tracing my Gravestone.(The one in Stafford)If this is successful i will Post a "Grave Stone now located" edit on the Post

                                   Note

I would like to add a suggestion if i may ;)If you see a request for a cemetery headstone search, that is in your area.That you are willing to do as a "One off",but don't want to offer on this topic in case you get "Bogged Down" with requests that you cannot do.You can allways P.M that  that person and keep your privacy.

Just found this topic - think it is a great idea

Can visit cemetries and church graveyards almost anywhere in north Gwent (Monmouthshire)    As long as no-one is in a particular rush    Can't do actual look-ups - sorry, what with work, children etc etc, just don't have the time  but a lot of the graveyards are quite small. 

I do know that council run cemetries in Blaenau Gwent are on their listings and if you write to them they will provide details.

If anyone thinks they have a relative in this area send me a pm and I can tell you whether it is council run and what the address is etc.   

Hope that's ok and the sort of thing you mean Celia??

Regards
