I love genealogy too and as I'm active on forums and such and have lists of names out on the internet, I've had perfect strangers email me photos of headstones that they took that happen to be my family. One of the projects underway in the UK is for people to take photos of headstones in churchyards and then submit them to a website for everyone to see. Like you say, they don't last and people don't realise.<br /><br />Hugs<br />Brenda<br />(Racing Girl on DTE forum)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155811529104728951.post-1589691399652141892011-04-05T08:33:18.389+10:002011-04-05T08:33:18.389+10:00It is a very important job, recording your family ...It is a very important job, recording your family history...also very time consuming...but most of all, very rewarding.nellymaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00290358658245310632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155811529104728951.post-17478669531479731972011-04-04T10:43:30.585+10:002011-04-04T10:43:30.585+10:00Great pictures!
