Family History photography
If I find details of where your ancestors are buried, and if you are able, it is worth visiting to see if you can locate your ancestor's gravestone. This can provide even more useful information to complete your family tree. Here are some photos of a few of the more interesting gravestones I found, along with a couple of sites of local interest.
The graves of Frances Clara Bunney and her father Thomas.
St Mary Magdelene Coventry’s 11th Century Church

The gateway to Guy's Cliffe -

The grave of Frederick Smith,
St Mary Magdelene's Church
Grave of Edward Reynolds and his wife Ann - Family history research photo
Please note, the quality of images on this page has been significantly reduced for the web. My original photographs are of a much higher standard.
