My hubby's grandparents are buried in Old Mission (Brice Larimer McClure and Floyda Steiner McClure), which is how we happened to see and photograph the headstone shown here.
Can you spot the mistake?
The Find a Grave memorial for Christiana Haag offers more info here.
In my family tree, the headstone for a great uncle shows an incorrect date--a discrepancy I discovered when I obtained his death cert.
This stone with a typo is a great reminder: Even if a name, date, or age is "carved in stone," we still need to check and confirm!
This photo is, as my friend says, "a grave mistake."
Oh, this is hilarious! And I didn't catch it first time I looked. So sad.
