    1. carved in stone
    2. Hi all, Another question: My John Kefauver, buried in Goodview Cem (#1220) Has a stone headstone and behind it is a field stone, which my Mother says means that he was a settler on the land. Does anyone know if this is the true meaning of a field stone being placed right behind a headstone? Also, carved on his stone is a hand holding an anchor and wheat on both sides of it. What does the hand holding the anchor stand for and what does the wheat stand for? I assume the wheat is for being a farmer. Thanks in advance, Flo You all are always so helpful.
