I'm a local/social/family historian on the Isle of Wight. If you're looking for somebody who lived or died on the Isle of Wight, even (especially?) if they aren't on FindaGrave, do get in touch and I'll try and help you find them. It might be possible to find where they lived too.

I typically focus on working class history, and forgotten or marginalised people, and I tend to create memorials for people I think might not be remembered. At the moment I'm working through all the people known to be buried in unmarked graves at the Isle of Wight House of Industry (the euphemistic name for the workhouse/asylum/infirmary complex on the site of what is now St Mary's Hospital), trying to identify them from their entries in the burial register, ideally with a view to reconnecting them with descendants or relatives.

If I've created a memorial for a relative of yours, or somebody who means something to you, I'd love to transfer management to you - please do just ask.
