Hi Kevin

I'll look at the photograph when Richard has finished indexing the names
from them.......lots and lots of the headstones had wonderful verses on
them, some I have not seen before. Lots of the headstones were just for the
husband, and then another for the wife, unless I'd seen them side by side it
would be harder to connect them.

If anyone has the surname 'Salmon' in this area there is a wonderful plot of
three graves.....lots of other family plots, lots and lots of 'John's,
Evans, Thomas and quite a few Beynon's (for you Pat).....

speak soon Pauline
