Cemetery Snapshots

I finally got round to having a look in a couple of envelopes of assorted cemetery snapshots from America that I received in the post earlier this year. Oh that people would write some details on the reverse!

A souvenir photograph from the Arrow Photo Service - Box 104, Neverfade Photos, Minneapolis

Elderly grandparents at the grave of son or daughter, perhaps. Note the child. Is that a sailor suit of sorts

At the graveside. Relatives are pictured with the floral tributes

Only the words 'Daddy Monument' are written on the reverse of this photogaph. It is the grave of French Canadian Architect, Jule Joanisse (61) who died in 1932 and his mother Anastessie (91) who died in 1931. The cemetery is in Cochrane, Ontario

Bange? Not the most common of names. On the back is written: Lisle and Revilla, Barre, Vermont; C F Redding, Hanover, Penna: Mount Olivet Cemtery, Hanover, Penna

An illustrated look at the World of Graveyards and Cemeteries. There are many Stories behind the Stones that Stand in them. Who knows what we might find?
