"The grave marker was originally standing up, but in the 1950's the sandstone markers/monuments were all laid down because of their sensitivity to weathering. William's monument was totally invisible but we probed and found it. I have to tell you that once we unearth these cool, old monuments, we have to cover them back up so they are preserved again and don't become a lawn cutting hazard to the grounds keepers. We wished we could have lifted it up to find out if his wife, Julia, was listed on the back."
