J. Ben Lipscomb

LIPSCOMB, J. Ben., 1 Sep 1847 - 16 Oct 1904. (Son George & Mary C. Lipscomb.), Block 'D'
It was in the early 1900s that Granite monuments began showing up in the south. On issue was that no one knew how to inscribe the lettering deep enough to be easily read because it was such a hard rock. [WA 5/8/08]
