    This etched stone has been passed down to me by my Grandad. Possible area of origin: Southwest Virginia as far south as North Carolina. My Grandad’s mother’s (great grandma’s) maiden name was Black. When I asked my Grandad about it he said, “I don’t know what that is! You can have it!” Not much information there. Great grandad was a stone mason This item isn’t for sale and won’t be. This item holds a lot of sentimental value.

      Good one dav2no1, I thought odd that () 1962 AMR was on the side, but then saw your comment! Thanks!
