[edit] Whose grave is it?

The way I read it, that is the gravestone of Joseph and Mary (no relation to the biblical-era couple) Anning, as well as the three infants. The stone is "Sacred to the memory of" all, and there are dates of death. I think this is their shared tombstone. Eleven even (talk) 23:55, 4 March 2008 (UTC)


I take it from comments in the summary that someone interpreted it to be the grave of Mary's father: I can see that. If you take the three children to be Joseph's children, and "Mary, sister of above" to refer to the children, then that makes Joseph her father. The dates, however, show that he was 4 years older than her. Not likely to be her father. Eleven even (talk) 10:53, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
