MLCKeymasterGood afternoon, this is a font named Monotype Corsiva.
MLCKeymasterUnfortunately, I do not know the name of this font, but I have matched it on occasion, and I can tell you that it is a custom monument industry font, likely created by a manufacturer—possibly Rock of Ages. It also usually contains a different version of the 9 with no serif, though I have seen this version once before as well.
If you would like help matching it, feel free to use the Inscription Matching Service.
MLCKeymasterThis looks like the original Spacerite version of Modified Roman. It would have been hand cut so there may be variations from letter to letter, especially in the serifs.
MLCKeymasterI believe this is a font named Gotham.
MLCKeymasterHi John, unfortunately, this is not something I’ve ever run into before. It does not look professionally designed, and is possibly a custom font.
MLCKeymasterGood morning, this is Times New Roman, though it looks like it has been slightly thickened up with a small stroke/outline added for better sandblasting.
MLCKeymasterHello, this is a font named Cambria Bold.
MLCKeymasterThis is an old metal Spacerite alphabet named Scriptural Art, originally designed by memorial designer Conrad Kenerson. However, the ‘T’ appears to have been replaced by the maker of this monument with one of their own design. There is a poorly drawn version available in the Monu-Cad software, but there are currently no other digital versions available.

MLCKeymasterThis appears to be the font Optima, but it has been horizontally squeezed quite a bit.
MLCKeymasterHello, this is a font named Optima Bold.
MLCKeymasterThis looks like a version of the Baskerville font named Baskerville No. 1 SB Bold.
MLCKeymasterGood afternoon, this is definitely hand drawn lettering. You may be able to get somewhat close with a font like Eurostile Regular or Medium and modify it to match more closely.

MLCKeymasterGood morning, this is a font named Casualee Cursive Connected. It is currently only available in digital form in the Gerber software.

MLCKeymasterThis appears to be custom lettering. Feel free to use the Inscription Matching Service if you would like help matching it: https://www.monumentletteringcenter.com/product/cemetery-inscription-matching-service/
MLCKeymasterGood morning, this is a version of Modified Roman with most of the serifs removed, typically referred to as a semi-sans font.
This was originally done by hand by a stencil cutter when it was popularized between the 1950s-1970s, but it is not common now. However, there are some digital versions of the font available that may match closely to what you have in your photo, including one in the Monu-Cad software, and there is one available in the MLC Font Shop, here: https://www.monumentletteringcenter.com/product/mlc-modified-roman-semi-sans/
