Tombstone:

Henry Clara Parker tombstone, Buffalo Cemetery, Leon County, Texas;
photographed by Rondina Phillips Muncy, 9 April 2004.

The above is an example of a full citation for a tombstone. No discussion
about the name, dates, or features of the stone should be placed in the citation,
unless there is an extenuating circumstance. For example, two tombstones for
one person. [Elizabeth-please pipe in here if you need to correct me.] Reread
Elizabeth Shown Mills book, Evidence! for the gravestone citations and the
explanation in the front as to what the components of full and short citations
and bibliography citations consist of.

Sorry for the large typeface this morning.
