[[Image:Romanby 1.jpg|thumb|right|320px]]The English call tombstones "monumental inscriptions" (or M.I.s). Monumental inscriptions may provide birth, marriage, and death information. They sometimes give more information than the parish burial register or civil death certificate—information such as military service, occupation, or cause of death. Cemetery records are especially helpful for identifying ancestors not in other records. Because relatives may be buried in adjoining plots, search the entire record. | [[Image:Romanby 1.jpg|thumb|right|320px]]The English call tombstones "monumental inscriptions" (or M.I.s).
