Conservation:
The stone fragment was one of a few dozen uncovered during the demolition of a storage shed at a private residence on vul.

The young man who owned the property and who was doing the demolition work agreed to sort out the headstone fragments and he trucked them to the old cemetery on 11Sep2015.
