Hi Mal

Is it worth working on the photos from the Blackcountry History site? The memorial to Edward Guest second son of Esther (brother to Elizabeth Bennet I suppose).

Added:

I'll start a thread for them.

That's a great idea gardener and if anyone has the time, it would be brilliant

I have been sent a load of photos of inscriptions from St Edmunds, St Thomas's and St John's and that's gonna take me forever to add to the gallery.
Just thought I'd have a look at the Bennett one while I'm waiting for Admin to set up what I need.

This thread now looks completed so will flag to archive
