There is but a single zinc headstone within the St. Andrews Anglican Church Cemetery in Grimsby. Crafted by White Bronze Co. at the company's lone Canadian facility in St Thomas Ontario.

There are two memorials on the monument. Given the history of the White Broze Co, it's clear that the grave was crafted for Wm Whittaker; on one side of the monument it reads:
IN LOVING MEMORY OF Wm WHITTAKER
DIED APRIL 28, 1888
AGED 67 YEARS

A second memorial, cast onto metal of a slightly darker finish, reads:
IN LOVING MEMORY OF JAMES GODFREY WHITTAKER
DIED MAY 1, 1946 AGED 76 YEARS
Date of death (optional): 04/28/1888
