thanks Lee
I don't speak Welsh - but assume this to be Jane the daughter of John and Sarah - she was born in 1858 and I'm assuming this says she was aged 18 when she died. Not sure who Myfanwy is though - perhaps her daughter?
thanks for your help

Jane was the daughter (Merch) of John and Sarah. I can't read the bit about Myfanwy but I'd guess she is another daugher of John and Sarah. You say you have photos of these already? Can you read it any better?

Hi Lee
I have photocopies of what was once I'm sure photos - sadly the quality is really poor - hard to read. I may invest in a magnifying glass in the next couple of days and see if that assists me more (could just be old age and deteriorating eyesight on my part !)  :(

Hi Lee
a little more work done here - and a larger magnifying glass!
I think I've got the majority of the headstone content for Jane Foulks - the one next to John and Sarah - from what I can make out it reads as follows (excuse any typos!)

Jane Merch John & Sarah Foulkes - can't really read the next bit but then goes on to say farw Mawrth 21 1876 va 18 oed. Then on to Myfanwy - reads as follows: Hefyd Myfanwy Anwyl hlenis Thomas ar Elizabeth Foulkes Mehefni 1885 . I cant make out the other wording - but does any of that mean anything to you?

thanks in advance
