All entries within the GPR for the family name SHEPHERD

I live in the United States and will probably never see my "Home land" in person, this makes researching my family history very difficult. Having a site like this means WORLDS to me, you allow me to travel the blustery cemetaries of Scotland from the warmth and comfort of my home...all while enjoying a cup of tea! Thank you for making the journey for me. Warm Regards, Maryeileen.

Many thanks. Once again you have been able to fill in some blanks with the photos from your website. Regards Michael

Just like to say, thanks so much for the photo, it has turned out better than the one I took, 2 years ago. I think this is a great site and will be looking at it a lot in the future. I will upload the photo's of grave from some of the Shepherd I have found in Cliviger, Lancs. Jan

What a great site. I have received many images from your site but requesting my grandparents gravestone was particulary special. I knew where they were buried but llive some distance from there.

what a great service to offer!thanks to all the volunteers for their hard work

photo received within a few hours of request. Very much appreciated - thanks

Hello Charles, Thank you for providing this service to people overseas (I am in Canada). I am researching for a friend, who is actually in England, so I hope to provide her with the information on where to go to view the headstone of her ancestor. It is a fascinating journey and I am just learning the lay of the land in England. Again, many thanks for your work. M

The above was the first labour councilor elected to Thornaby-on-Tees Town Council. He was a carpenter by trade and I believe at one time a trade union official. In the 1930s he became a full time political agent for the Labour Party in the Stockton-on-Tees Constituency. He was instrumental in the defeat of Harold Macmillan (later P.M.) in the 1945 Election seeing George Chetwynd returned to Westminster as the M.P. I am the oldest grandchild of the above couple who had two sons and five grandchildren.

Many thanks indeed for allowing me to view the Shepherd/Onions memorial in St Mary & St Leonard Churchyard at Wombridge. I have only recently found the Shepherd line in my family tree from my maternal great grandmother Esther Shepherd born Tipton 1806 to Johne Schiphird born Perthshire 1540. For 200 years the Shepherds lived and worked in Shropshire mainly at Much Wenlock, Little Wenlock and Wombridge.

I am the great granddaughter of the above Neil and Bernice I would like to let you know that June and Pauline are still living and Gary is not berried in this plot the only people at rest are Neil and Bernice I would appreciate it if you could please fix this as it is causing issues with family research and I have had to correct other people's trees being a genealogist, ancestry.com has this listed as a plot with them and their children using this sites url as a link Thank you and kind regards
