Its a long time since i finished taking The inscriptions,I am glad i did it.Because i don't think some of are there now.

While i was looking for someone during the week.I am not sure if its allready on here but i don't think so because he wasn't a merchant seaman

Hi Celia,

Poor Little lad,

I am glad that you now have a record of the inscriptions too.

Are you going to lodge them with a maritime museum for posterity?  All that work should go down in history somewhere methinks ???

Well done that Lady   :)

I hadn't really thought about that rabbit.
I am pleased to say that a few of the gravestones or the transcriptions from them have been claimed in the past.So it makes  my day when that happens ;D ;D

Hi Celia,

I am sure it does.  But time goes on and your little place in History of the Maritime museum would then be assured.

Without your hard work the inscriptions would have been lost.  You might not have been a sailor, but it is people like you giving up their time that preserves the records.

I appreciate it and I am sure that other generations will too.
