Some old headstones, oldest 1881, from the Apostolic Christian Church's old
cemetery were recently discovered in Bluffton. See link below for full
story.
Headstones were replaced at the cemetery due to aging in the 1950's and
these are the originals. Found in someone's backyard, the owner is apparently
allowing family members to claim them. Two have been claimed already, although
it does not mention which two.

Thank you for the interesting item. It's too bad the old stones were
replaced by flat headstones. One can see from the newspaper article that those
"new" stones are already sinking and on their way to being buried.
