Ratings and Reviews
Catch the past before it vanishes!
Visiting the odd cemetery from time to time I was surprised how many memorials were lost, fallen over or ‘recycled’. Many had inscriptions that were fading or the underlying stone is being eaten away and becoming unreadable. BG manages to capture these memorials before they suffer oblivion and can let you see them (usually) in a better condition than you would today. Check whether you can help and cover your local Cemy before it is too late - it’s great exercise and you’ll help many people trace their ancestors!
Great cause, poor App
Continually frustrated by how clunky the App is. Visited a cemetery this afternoon and could not get it to let me add the cemetery. So I went ahead and photographed 80 gravestones. In the App it said they weren’t assigned to a cemetery, but it would let me assign them to one. The only option was to upload them, so I did. It then uploads them to a totally random cemetery somewhere else in the country. Again, there is no option to change the assigned cemetery. After googling for help, it seems I have to email support and they will sort it. All in all a very poor experience, which is such a shame when it’s such a good cause.
Brilliant!
This is a great thing!! You can find people to visit their gravesite when you can’t remember or you don’t know. Or for people who are housebound. Brilliant idea.
