John Arthur Kelly, of #Nelson, was returning home on the Lusitania in 1915 when it was sunk by a German U-boat.
He's remembered on the family #Grave at St John's Church Graveyard.
I'd like to think he is in Margate, but there are no Lusitania victims listed there. He isn't on the list of recovered.

Have you made your tomb in your lifetime?

Thomas Fuller is always rewarding and quotable (for those who take the time to read 17th century English literature).

Day9: Mysterious
This #Grave in St John's Church #Graveyard, #Nelson, Lancashire, is still a mystery, I haven't managed to figure out the lettering, nor the religious denomination, the brotherhood, or even the type of cross.

Thoughts anyone?

#31DaysOfGraves Day9: Lettering

The #Grave of Thalberg Halstead has always pulled at my heartstrings.
His parents, Willie and Emma Jane, clearly proud of their son and their #Pendle roots.
Germanic in origin, Thalberg, means 'valley hill'.
Also buried with him is a sibling who was stillborn.

#31daysofgraves I'm a bit confused - is the theme #lettering or #hidden? Think I'll do both. This is my #greatgrandfather's #grave in #DeanCemetery #Edinburgh. Clear but sparse lettering - doesn't give much away.

I. AM. SO. SORRY. 😭

#mdwc26d6 #mdwc26d7 #grave #mushroom I like this one a lot better than my last. I missed yesterday, so I smooshed together today and yesterday, and I think it works fairly well. I wanted to put smthg funny on the tombstone, the first thing I thought was "I don't think those were normal mushrooms."
