I also suggest BMDshare, the more people who add the better.

Would also suggest checking out

http://www.gravestonephotos.com

Increasing no. of areas catalogued. I suggest checking any possible match as sometimes there can be a memorial miles away from where the person originated.

If you are lucky emough to get a match, do ask to have a look at the photo, you would be amazed at how much info can be found on some gravestones.

Thank you. I had looked for Deb's one that she started ages ago but it seemed to have disappeared so I started another, thinking it would be helpful, not knowing of the other two. I shall bookmark them, too.
