Be sure what you are calling the "footstone" is not, in actuality, the
headstone. There are often cases where the deceased or relatives did not
have enough money to purchase a large stone and so, what is normally a
footstone for many graves, becomes the main and only stone for a grave. This
could explain why writing on a "footstone" faces inward toward the grave.
Also, there have been cases we have seen where a grave is marked by nothing
more than a stone with a number which one has to match to a name on a list
somewhere.
