This modern, granite headstone is either a replacement for an early marker, a marker for a grave that had been unmarked, or an addition to the concrete base to which it is attached. Rectangular in shape, there is a box along the perimeter, and the inscription is inside, all in black letters:

John D. Gibbons
1840 [Dove of Peace] 1877

The dove is white, of course, on a black medallion.
Kind of dove: Dove with olive branch

Used material for the dove: Other (explanation in the long description)
