Thanks Helen & Jen,
The site is beginning to pick up, slowly, but then I never expected anything different. I have just finished fixing some problems people were having adding entries, and it all seems to be working properly now.
The intention of the site is to record in one place as many UK monumental inscriptions as we can. Anyone can add a transcription to the site, which is free for all to use and utilise. Different search facilites are being added as the needs arise, and I welcome any comments (in praise or criticism).
If you have any MI Transcriptions, then please donate them to this site, to enable others to benefit from them now, and to preserve the inscriptions for future generations. If you wish to provide small numbers, then you can add them on the site itself, larger collections may be better sent in bulk, details on request.

Commonwealth War Graves Commission
I do not think this has been listed?

The drop down arrow adjacent to the Casualty field allows a search by cemetery or memorial , including the United Kingdom , allowing access to reports, plans and photographs where applicable.

For anyone searching for WWII ancestors as far as awards, MIA, KIA, burial info and some other things..this is a good site for US stuff. It's http://www.wwiimemorial.com. It can also be found under National WWII memorial in your search. I found my Gr Uncle Billy in there.
