Grave marker is located in the churchyard of the old St Mary Magdalene church in Picton, ON.

A story in a 1936 edition of the old Toronto Telegram identified an absent-minded stone cutter as the culprit, and not someone using a new and improved calendar.

The tombstone was also featured in an episode of Ripley's Believe it or Not in the '60s.
