Smith family - Crich
Sitting at my desk in Sydney, Australia, I have just found a photo of the headstone of my 3g grandparents buried in Crich:
Ann wife of John Smith d.June 9th 1840 aged 60yrs.Also John d.April 7th 1867 aged 84yrs.

Their son James Smith (1813-1893) (my 2g grandfather) is also buried there in plot D67, with his wife Sarah and daughter Ann. (Any chance of a photo next time you are in Crich?)

James's son William (1833-1896) emigrated to Victoria, Australia in 1854.

Thank you for your generosity of time and effort in this wonderful website.

Hi Helen,
Thank you for your comments.I will see if I can get a photo of James Smith's memorial,but some are so badly weathered that you cannot read them,and some broken.

Hello John,

I have just started to research my family tree. Your website helped me find the gravestone of three of my newly discovered relatives. I live in Chesterfield and will now be exploring for myself.

Thank you.

I visited Cubley church a few months ago it was lovely to see my great great grandmothers grave Emily Ward nee Oakden and her sons grave William Latimer Ward. The picture on this web site is very good. Thank you.
