GRAVEMARKERS BEARING STONECUTTER’S IDENTIFICATION
Tall marble tablet ogee rounded crest and rose tympanum icon for Elizabeth Illidge Plamondon (1842-1862), second wife of Eugene Michel Plamondon. It is the center gravemarker of three surviving in a row in the Plamondon plot. Her husband’s grave is adjacent to the north. The marker is broken away from base. The butt end fragment remains in the keyway and shows the maker’s mark in the lower left of the west-facing side: “W. Young/ Portland, O.” Whether the base has been turned from an historic orientation to the east or the signature could have been inscribed on the reverse (west) side of the stone is unclear. The companion tablets, including those of Eugene Michel Plamondon and Edith “Pocahoantas” Plamondon, his first wife, are east-facing.
