Blasterz love the WoW tombstones with interesting log elements. But what struck us is that this is a Woodmen's Circle tombstone for a man -- we thought WC was exclusively for the women;s auxiliary. It could be that the wife was a Woodmen's Circle member, but her husband was not a member of the Woodmen of the World.

This elegant Woodmen's Circle tombstone for William P. Fears stands in historic Oak Grove Cemetery, Nacogdoches TX, and reads as follows:

"WILLIAM P. son of
Dr, & Mrs. W. P. FEARS
Oct. 25, 1877
Feb. 16, 1919

Though lost to sight, to memory dear."
Was the inscription legible?: Yes
