Welcome to the New York Gravestone Photo Project!
The mission of this project is to capture digital images of gravestones of our ancestors. As decades pass-- many stones are becoming harder, if not impossible, to read the inscriptions they originally contained.
By archiving the images, we can help save these important records and also assist researchers using this valuable resource.
Further information on preparing the photos before uploading can be viewed at Preparing Photos BEFORE Uploading
We are currently seeking volunteers to help take and upload photos for many areas. If you have an interest in volunteering for this rewarding part-time activity, see our frequently asked questions and volunteer information articles.
