Reasons why the image for this memorial was requested

I am researching my Destin/Distin family. George Destin/Distin sailed from Bristol, England about 1805 to America. I am hoping that since Devon is so close to the seaport, Bristol, and that several generations of the Distin family are found in Paignton, this might be my Destin/Distin family. I still have much research to do to confirm or deny this. A photo like this would be a treasure. Thank you. Patty Sikes

I believe this man to be my cousin's 4 x great grandfather. Having just obtained his Will today this grave is what we now would have expected, although it is a surprise. Thanks in anticipation.

I am a decendent of the Distin family of musicians and I believe this the grave of my great, great, great, great grandfather. My husband and I will also be visiting Devon from Australia in August and would love to visit the grave.
