Notes from Neal Cash who took the photos:
"This grave is alone and in Mr Watson's front yard. This is the story he told me. First, he said, the date is wrong and I have the documentation to prove it. Second, he said, the guy joined a local church at age 81. He then was dismissed for "using profane" language. He was so mad at the church that he told folks he would be buried in that field, which at the time was under cultivation, and so he was. The farm was known as the REDD FARM. Mr LeGrand owned property elsewhere in the area, but lived on the Redd Farm. Mr. Watson, doesn't mind the occasional visitor and he keeps the area very nice. Mr Watson has lived his entire life there and his mother called the grave, St Peter's. The grave was not marked. Also she told him that he must have been buried with a walnut in his pocket and that's why the tree."
