Hello Sue. I have 2 Snowden gravestone inscriptions but they are of a late date. One 1951 with the person aged 70 years And one 1990 with the person aged 80 years. I do not post these later date inscriptions but you can have the details if you think they are of use to you.

Hi Adam, it's not the couple I was thinking of as he died in 1894 & she was 70 in 1901.
However, checking my records I've found another branch of the family was in Wolsingham in 1901, it's possible that the MIs refer to this branch so I would be interested in further details, thank you.
Sue

Hello Maureen. Here are the inscriptions:-
Sacred to the memory of George Atkinson of Greenwell, who died May/21/1809 aged 64 years. Also Margaret, wife of the above who died April/2/1787 aged 42 years. Also Joseph, son of John and Mary Atkinson, who died August/2/1832 aged 8 years. Also Mary, wife of John Atkinson of Greenwell, who died August/21/1847 aged 67 years. Also the above named John Atkinson, who died November/16/1857 aged 83 years. Also George, son of the above J Atkinson who died Sep?/1862? aged 49 years. Also Joseph ?? Atkinson, son of the last named  Margaret Atkinson who died April/22/1857 aged 7? years. The reason for the question marks are because there is damage to the bottom of the gravestone making parts unreadable.
In loving memory of John James Ross, who died 9/August/1942 aged 88 years. Also of Reuben, his son who died 5/July/1935 aged 35 years. Also of Mary, his beloved wife who died 31/July/1950 aged 83 years.
There is another stone for Ross but the dates are from the 1970's with the death ages around the 80 years. I do not post inscription with dates after 1950 but I can post via personal message if you think they may help.
Adam.

Hi Adam,
I would be very grateful for any MI's for the surname Whitfield in the 1700's & 1800's.
If there are too many, please let me know and I will see if I can give you some specific names to search for.
Many thanks.
