I just uploaded a lot of headstone photos to Find A Grave.com for the Rodman Cemetery, Roaring Spring, Blair Co, PA if anyone has any relatives buried there. There are also many illegible and/or broken stones, some in a pile under a tree, with a lot of brush overgrown on top of them. Many small stones with initials only, photos for them also. Hope this helps someone! Terri (NV)
Hi Terri, I looked at your photos at the Rodman Cemetery on findagrave.com. My guess is that these little stones with 3 initials are footstones. You could verify that if the cemetery has headstones bearing a name with these same initials. The footstones matched the headstones in color and style. Many cemeteries removed the footstones at a later date to make mowing easier. No disrespect or desecration was intended. Just a thought.
