GPR Relationship codes

Below is a list of all the relationship codes used within the Gravestone Photographic Resource:

Relationship codes

On most grave monuments there are usually more than one name. The GPR stores relationship information about each of these names. This relationship information shows the relationship between a name on the monument and the first name mentioned on that monument.

The GPR stores details of all names listed on a monument and not just the names of people buried in the grave. This is paticularly useful for family history researchers to help them identify ancestors. For instance it would be difficult to identify a child without the details of its parents.
