"A couple of years ago, I was doing some fieldwork on Anticosti Island
(Quebec)  and I came across a grave which was of some
shipwreck victims.  At the time, I thought it was
interesting and took a photo of it."
--Gail Radcliffe - London, Eng.--

Note: This headstone is not in a cemetery or near a church or even
a town.  It is located in a field not far from the beach on the
south side of the island of Anticosti in the mouth
of the St. Lawrence River (Quebec).
