Re: 19th Century Masonic Tombstones
Attached is an image of the grave of George E. DuCharme. Served in the 74th Illinois Infantry and interred in the City Cemetary, Agency, IA. I find it interesting that Mr. DuCharme has two stones. In the foreground is his Masonic/privately purchased stone. Just over the left shoulder of the stone is his military headstone.

Re: 19th Century Masonic Tombstones
My second favorite passtime, wandering thru graveyards, taking pictures of headstones. The wife and I are members of another site just for this purpose. I am currently building a central Texas Confederate virtual cemetery. Glad to see we are not alone in our hobby.

Re: 19th Century Masonic Tombstones
While waiting to pick up some drawing at a printer in Gallatin, TN yesterday I decided to take a quick walk through the old city cemetery. Here are a couple I found - worth sharing.
Ok, the first is one that I think is pretty cool, but I'd like everyone's opinion whether they think it is a Mason - or not. The second was just kinda cool...so I add it here for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!

Re: 19th Century Masonic Tombstones
I thought that I had read where the carpemters guild used the S&C as well, but arranged in a different way.
