My Faerie Name
Your fairy is called Columbine Goblindancer
She is a bringer of riches and wealth.
She lives in mushroom fields and quiet meadows.
She is only seen when the bees swarm and the crickets chirrup.
She wears lilac and purple like columbine flowers. She has gentle green wings like a butterfly.

It is really original!
Nice shot! I think Woodman of the World is some sort of fraternal organization.
Thanks for e-mail. Neat tombstone. Shall someone place a stone camera on ours?!!
fondly, Lee
I love the uniqueness of this marker!
Most interesting and unusual. From what I can see, he certainly was involved in the woods - probably as a lumberjack.
Woodmen of the World is a fraternal organization based in Omaha, NE, which operates a huge insurance company...kind of like Lutheran Brotherhood.
It is very possible he belonged to that fraternity.
McCree sounds Scottish?
Fascinating!
Neat grave marker, MB. Unusual.
Yes, Jacob has it right. I just Googled the Woodmen, and it seems they were noted for erecting tombstones such as this across the country before 1930. I know I have seem them before. They are wonderful.
Wow, how interesting!
That is pretty neat. Amazing what you find in the cemetery sometimes.
I am amazed at some of the old tombstones...they are really beautiful.
That is different - what a great find!
Definitely unique. Thanks for sharing.
The Woodmen Of The World is a fraternal organization founded by a man named Root to provide life insurance and other benefits to members to promote financial success. The stump tombstones came in a few different varieties and were one of the benefits of membership. They were abandoned in the late 20s due to high cost. One of the largest concentrations of the these headstones is in Brownsville TX although I don't know why.
My dad was a member of this and just about any other fraternal lodge/group/club/organization you can think of.
I do love wandering around cemeteries looking at the unique stones. Thanks for sharing.
Okay, first of all, I love the name. William E. McCree? It rhymes!
