Great idea

I often go to the Maidstone cemetery as I have 5 generations burried there.

 :(

Unless you have someone buried in Canberra, Oz, I can't do lookups.
But I can make wild guesses about unreadable inscriptions!!  ;D

great a separate page for this About 2 months ago i went to Queens Road cemetery Erith Kent to photograph some gravestone for me and some i had found through GenesReunited as some of his family was related to mine but searched out particular graves for him and emailed the pics to America where he is living.
