I began thinking about Edward's tombstone project which took me on a quick search of
the internet. The results were quite enlightening and I could see where they could also
be frustrating for the average researcher.
There are some cemeteries/tombstone photos on the GenWeb that are not in the archives and
vice versa. There are tombstone photos in
findagrave.com that are not in the USGW.
Below are just a few of the sites that I located that has tombstone photos. I did a
search for gravesites and came up with many that are specialized (i.e. movie stars,
politicians, etc.)

This next one is limited, but the owner is always willing to allow sharing of his
tombstone photos.

I know that the site can be a wonderful asset, but it will take everyone giving input to
make it the best.
