This is my gg-grandfather's plot.  Where many sites stand tall, or if laid 
out flat, have a standing headstone.  I was surprised that his plot was so 
"plain" as he was a prosperous man. Someone had used a gold pain to outline 
his name on the tombstone. This site is rectangular in shape, about 2 1/2 
feet tall.  The white granite headstone lays on top of the site (and 
obviously weatherworn from direct exposure).  There are only two names on the 
headstone. Holy Name of Mary Church lost many records in a fire years ago, 
and only had the information on the two names on the headstone.
