The Medway Series of Monumental Inscriptions - Introduction.

The Medway Series of Monumental Inscriptions has now been produced in collaboration with the Institute of Heraldic & Genealogical Studies.

During the 1940's to 1960's, Cecil R Humphery-Smith was involved with the national work, led by the Society of Genealogists, to collect monumental inscriptions from graveyards. Much time was spent talking to school children and teachers about this important work and this lead to many collections of MI's being transcribed by school children during their holidays. A large number were deposited with the S.O.G., but a substantial quantity have been held at the Institute of Heraldic & Genealogical Studies.

The transcripts are now published in Mini CD format, for Each county.

Please note: The transcripts are not a definitive listing of all the Monumental Inscriptions in each grave yard, some are quite extensive, others minimal.
