| BEKAERT | Belgian Military Grave for Gustaaf BEKAERT, | Hi, I am helping an elderly Belgian gentleman who is now unable to visit
Britain to complete his work obtaining photographs of all the Belgian
soldiers who died in Britain during World War 1. To date he has collected
21,716 named Belgian WWI war grave photographs. He believes there is a
maximum possible of about 23,000. So that's a good 94%.
He informs me that there is a Belgian Military Grave for BEKAERT, Gustaaf,
born in Gent, 25 Sep 1880, died at Harrogate 04/03/1915 and who is buried in
Grove Road Cem. Grave K. Border 273.
Would it be possible for one of the volunteer photographers to send me a
digital photo of the grave / headstone, and possibly a picture showing the
background setting? Rene informs me that for the collection he requires good
quality photos e.g. about 4 mbyte size as he shows them at a large
magnification. My early photos which I had reduced in size for transmission
had to be resent individually as I exceeded my email account limit.
I would be most grateful if you could help me support this project.
Any photos can be sent to my above email address
Many Thanks,
John Curtis

| LARAMAN | Researching the Laraman's from Faversham and Whitstable | I would be so interested to link up with any fellow researchers working on the Laraman's from Whitstable or Faversham. I have fairly good data drawn from census etc, but it would be fascinating to know if any distant relatives are still local for me to liaise with. I thank anyone who is kind enough to take the time to respond. My connection is that my great grandfather married a Laraman from Whitstable. Thanks again. Laurence | 27/10/2015 | 5294 |

| GUYLEE | Gravestone image readible difficulty | Dear Sir, I wish to thank you so very much for sending to me ever so promptly the photo that I requested from The Banks Municipal Cemetery in Bingham, Nottinghamshire. I am referring to photo image BC CW 070; Grave Marker #465738 with Arthur Martin as the first person on the stone. The image that was sent is very lovely to have for our genealogical records especially since we live in Canada. However, I am wondering if the photographer of this stone has a written record of how the stone reads I would be forever grateful for that as well since the image is nearly impossible to read clearly the inscriptions for Arthur Martin, his wife; Elizabeth Martin, his daughter; Hannah Elizabeth Martin and his other daughter; Edith Whitley Guylee who is the ancestor that I am tracing. I am still delighted to have the photo of her final resting place but I would be very happy to know exactly what is written on the stone. The service that you provide to researchers like myself is phenomenal and it is a great asset to all of my fellow family historians alike. From the bottom of my heart, thank you very much for all the work that you do free of charge for us all. | 29/05/2015 | 5038 |

| MANY | St Michaels Alnwick Northumberland England | Dear GPR
I am chairman of Alnwick Family History Society.
We are very anxious to produce on our website the ability for the many visitors to our town to be able to see whether their ancestor lies buried in St Micheals churchyard. We would be delighted to give GPR any credit required and include your URL and the GPR ref if you wished, but can we ask for a big favour please? Could you possibly send me an Excel of the data on St Michaels graveyard Alnwick Northumberland England pages as shown on your website. It will save us approx 200 working hours of manually writing down each grave, so would be an unbelievable godsend. I see that you say that the graves are 80% pictured. Given this information I could definitely try to raise at least one volunteer to complete the process in return.
Many Regards
Dudley George

| HAMMOND | Thomas Hammond | Dear Sir
I am trying to find Thomas Hammond who died on 13th September 1902, he is buried at Beacon Avenue Cemetery Cleethorpes plot number J-02-04.
He dose not appear on your list of Hammond, would this possibly be that there is no head stone.
Yours Sincerely

| BEYNON | Missing headstone Info to help you | Hi, I stumbled surprisingly upon your website tonight whist researching my family. They are all buried in St Leonard's church yard in Loveston and their graves have been recorded by David and Julie Wookey. There is one monument that has not been included although it may have been photographed. Amongst the Beynons is a larger stone cross with a rambling rose growing under/ around it. It belongs to my grandfather's brother Evan John (Jack) Beynon (1903-1931) who died aged 28 of TB. The inscription is weathered and the last time I visited barely visible. I would be so pleased if he could be included in the list along with his brothers, sisters, parents, grand and great grand parents and nephew, my father.
Great idea to record such information. Thank you.
Kind regards,
