Lacy Cemetery, 75-1 Summary Report, page 68

(Note: The taped “stick” is a simple garden hoe handle with the blade removed from its mounting hook. The hook serves to probe under the surface a few inches and helps to find and turn tombstones that have fallen face down. The hoe handle further offers some protection and separation from snakes and other “critters” that may reside underneath fallen tombstones when exploring old cemeteries. It likewise provides a visual clue as to size of objects in photographs.) 68 - (2702)
