With permission to appeal sought (@CBrogan_MedLaw @caoilfhionnanna @MaryRachel_McC) from the decision to deny a simple Irish inscription on Margaret Keane’s grave, an exhibit, below, from my ongoing research to assist the family @My_Mums_Voice: Welsh & German inscriptions. [1/4] 
Welsh: “Gorffwys Mewn Hedd” (Rest in peace)
German: “Oma” (Grandma); “Opa” (Grandpa)
These are illustrative of linguistic variation in Church of England graveyard inscriptions; relevant to the appeal in Margaret Keane’s case (details below).

With the family’s permission, please DM me any others: ideally from Church of England graveyard(s), showing non-English inscription without translation. Please:
▫️ photo the entire gravestone, and
▫️ provide name & location of graveyard.
