Photographed here, not yet read
1 photographs of this ground carry a caption on eGGSA that nothing in this project has yet matched to a person. The words are eGGSA's transcription of the stone, kept exactly as written; nobody here has read the photograph. Each one links to its own page on their site. 7 further photographs of this ground are already in the table above.

The photographs are eGGSA's and stay on their site; this project links to them and does not copy them. Their albums are expressly incomplete, so a name missing here is not evidence that person is not buried here.
