Cemetery Headstones
« on: Sunday 11 February 24 20:31 GMT (UK) »
I'm from Canada and I've recently found my ancestors headstones in a cemetery near Whiteness, Shetland. Someone was kind enough to take photos but I'm wondering if anyone knows of a company or individual who cleans/restores old headstones on the isles? I would love to have this done as a tribute to my Shetland ancestry.

Any help or leads would be most helpful.
TIA
