Notes:
Housed in a clear plexiglass box. Title from first card. "Since 2010 I have photographed family names in graveyards and been continually fascinated by naming. Among the nearly three thousand names I have recorded, many were given based on the occupation and type of work done by the head of the household. Some jobs are familiar today, but many have become archaic and even obsolete. All this causes me to wonder what the names of the future will be like. Bea Nettles." -- Verso of title card. Each card contains 2 photographic images of occupational surnames taken from headstones.
