Bermuda Memorial Inscriptions
The husband and wife team, Hilary and Dick Tulloch, both come from military and families and were army officers. While resident in Bermuda, they noticed that many headstones of service men in the local cemeteries were deteriorating and took it upon themselves to record the inscriptions. Together they have unveiled the mysteries of military abbreviations and deciphered whimsical verses and poignant epitaphs. The book includes inscriptions from all the memorials found in the naval, military and historic cemeteries of Bermuda, as well as memorials of sailors, soldiers, airmen, servants, slaves, merchants, mariners, convicts and ambassadors, both local and from overseas from the parish and community cemeteries. It also includes short histories of each of the naval, military and historic cemeteries now managed by the Bermuda National Trust.
