The base bears the name “DEITZ”. The top of the family monument has fallen from its base and is lying on one of its sides so any inscription that may be on that side is not visible. Each of the other three sides contains an inscription; one for John’s first wife Melvina (Mallory) Deitz, one for his wife Elizabeth (Mallory) Deitz, and one for his daughter Tinnie Deitz. Note: Excerpt from The New Era (Caro, Michigan newspaper), May 15, 1891, Page 5, col. 1: “Another nice monument was placed in the Ellington Cemetery by John Deitz to mark the resting place of his first and second wives and little daughter.” File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/mi/tuscola/photos/tombstones/ellingtontownshi/deitz86737nph.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.net/mifiles/ File size: 1.5 Kb
