May I just add my two pence worth. I've been to a lot of cemetries around Anglesey and Gwynedd looking for ancestors and I can't recall seeing that particular Palm design anywhere else so I think it is /was a pattern exclusive to that one stonemason. Might be worth checking the more recent headstones to see if that design is still in use.
If anyone is interested I've got digi pics of about half the headstones on Church Island. Been meaning to transcribe them but just can't seem to find the time at the moment.
You can get an excellent photo of the Britannia Bridge from the top of the island.
