We are invited to drop by the Canadian Headstone Photo Project, where digital images of tombstones will be put online <www.canadianheadstones.com>.
The founders of the project say that the stones are becoming harder to read, and in order to read the inscriptions, they are archiving the images.
The website covers all provinces and territories, as well as Ireland and the United States.
So I checked Canada's section, and found nothing yet, but that understandable because it is a new service.
You can do either a surname or cemetery search - or both.
The service is free - both to upload and download.
But if you check Ireland, you will see tombstones for County Tyrone and County Farmanagh, and a transcription is right under the picture.
The date which the transcription was done is also given.
