headstones/gravestones

Some of the headstones/gravestones in this graveyard date back to the nineteen century.

Hi,
Do both headstones and gravestones fit in the above and mean about the same to you? Thanks.

Yes -- but if I used "gravestones" I would than say "cemetery," in order to avoid the repetition of "grave." Also -- "nineteenth century."
