Perhaps some Historian or family member will revel the answer to your questions: Is the mother also buried here? <br /> I am thrilled there are no vandals -- these sculptures are priceless.<br /><br />joannyjoannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03338150531816845279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3198329362499789905.post-58943821738534704492011-02-16T20:35:21.139+01:002011-02-16T20:35:21.139+01:00Baudin, il a vraiment pas l'air bien... bon mo...Baudin, il a vraiment pas l'air bien... bon moi toutes ces tombes, ça me déprime.delphiniumhttp://delphinium75.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3198329362499789905.post-57281953412146351842011-02-16T12:54:18.610+01:002011-02-16T12:54:18.610+01:00Gorgeous photos, Peter.
