Ann Burns Tombstone, Montours Cemetery


Ann Burns tombstone

Several of the damaged tombstones in the Montours Cemetery have been duplicated in modern granite, which is a very good idea but costs some money. The broken stone of Ann Burns is still completely legible, and as a bonus it includes the name of the craftsman who inscribed it: Lanston S. Wilkins of Pittsburgh.
