QUESTION: Is it a marker for multiple family graves or family cornerstone marker?
ANSWER: His tombstone is a multiple of family graves. When the graves are unmarked or the family cannot find the grave makers for husband, wife, and children, the family members from a later generation may add a memorial stone, as is done for Joe L. Umberger and family.
