Hello Mandy. Here is what can be read on the two gravestones. They have both been scraped by someone else looking for Williamson surname. In scraping them they have damaged them, making it difficult for others following to find Williamson information.
In loving memory of John Williamson of Brancepeth, died March/11/19?? aged 84 years. Also Jane Williamson, wife of the above, died June/27/1916 aged 80 years.
To the memory of William Williamson of Brancepeth, who died September/25/1834 aged 9?? Also Sarah, sister of the above , who died 9/August/1856 age ?? Also Thomas Williamson.
Sorry that is all that can be read.
Adam

Hello Linda. Here they are. The first two are a bit iffy to read:-
Here lieth the body of John Brown of Brancepeth, who departed this life the 14th November 1763 aged ?4 years Here lieth the body of Ma   , departed this life 28 day of  ?.
Sacred to the memory of Sarah, child of John and Mary Brown of Seaton Deleval Hall, Northern Ireland, who died February/11/1852 aged 11? years. Also the above John Brown, died April/10?/1859 aged 56 years. Mary Brown, wife of the above John Brown? ???1865.
Sacred to the memory of Robert Brown, who died on the 27/April/1844 aged 27 years. Also George Brown, who died December/17/1848 aged 24 years.
Sacred to the memory of Jane, daughter of Robert and Sarah Brown of Stockley, who departed this life April/11/1809 aged 13 years. The above named Sarah Brown, died December/12/1840 aged 73 years. Also the above Robert, who died May/??/1847 aged 91 years.
Sorry about all the ? but I suppose you can except it with old gravestones.
I have also posted the Brown inscriptions for Willington on post number 34. With Willington and Brancepeth being so close it may be of interest.
Adam

Hello Kay. Here is part of the inscription for Taylor. The stone is bad condition and unreadable in most part.
Sacred to the memory of Robert Taylor of Willington, who died 3/June/??? aged 60 years. Also Anne, wife of the said Robert Taylor, who departed this life June/??/1860? age 71 years. The other side of the stone is a little clearer Likewise to preserve the memory off Mary Ann Mellanby?, grand daughter of Robert and Anne Taylor, who's name is on the other side of this stone? departed this life January/6/1848? aged 17 years.
There are 4 gravestones at Willington for Taylor that may be usefull?

Hello Lynda. Here are your inscriptions:-
In loving memory of William Hodgson, son pf William and Hannah Hodgson of Crook, who departed this life on the ?/day of November/1785 aged 28 years. Also William Hodgson, father of the above, departed this life 18th July 1790? aged 81 years. Also Hannah Hodgson, wife of the above, departed this life April/18/1804 aged 75? years. ( it was a fairly poor stone hence the ??)
In memory of Elizabeth Rain, late of Tudhoe, who departed this life on the 15th day of December 1853 age 66 years. Also Henry Rain, husband of the above, who departed this life on the 5th day of October 1856 aged 63 years ( could be 65 because the 3 and the 5 are very similar on the old gravestones.)
In memory of Mary Rain, daughter of Cuthbert and Dorothy Rain of Helmington Row, died January/8/1802 aged 9 years. Also Ann Rain, daughter of the above, died November/27/1826 aged 21 years.
