Hi Mary Jane:
Thanks so much for posting many of the old Towner grave stone monuments. My wife and I have been in the Rome PA area many times, but never made it to the old McCabe Cemetery. My second great grandfather was Rev. Isaac Pratt Towner. Thirty-three years ago I had published a Stone Family History. In this genealogy I have a photo of my supposed great grandfather, Almon Stone, I have always hoped that I did not mix him up with Isaac P. Towner. If you wish to see the subject photo, just look for Almon Stone in my family tree. The old photo just had a question mark in regard to my father's grandfather.
Best regards,
Ed Stone, Sr.
