Hamar and Luther gravestones in St George's churchyard, Clun

Hullo all,
Does anyone have or could someone possibly take a photograph of these graves?

Pedestal tomb. Circa 1830-5. Sandstone ashlar. Moulded plinth, sunken
panels, moulded cornice and concave capping to swagged urn-finial. To Moses
(died 1835) and Edith (died 1838) Hamar and their 7 children (died 1811).
Inscribed: "The above children of Moses and Edith Hamar/of Colestay in this
Parish were all/carried off by a Putrid Fever with/ awful rapidity in the
short space of/Three Weeks - a sad instance of the/ uncertainty of human
life" ''

(They are my 4x great grandparents)

Also:
Chest tomb. Circa 1830. Sandstone ashlar. Chamfered plinth, sunken
panels (end-panels with large shallow recessed lozenges), rebated corners
with quadrant angles and vase-shaped balusters as nook shafts, and cavetto
moulding to plain top. To John (died 1830) and Ann (died 1858) Luther.

( These also are my 4x great grandparents! )

I would very much like to add them to my family tree if possible.
Many thanks
Mary
