One aspect of cemetery preservation is locating and unearthing grave markers long sunken out of sight.
Tim has demonstrated his inherent ability to accomplish work of this nature quite well.
Citing here one such example is his recent locating Hartland D. Gowey's obscured and partially buried grave marker at Oak Grove Cemetery in Delaware.

The overbearing Yucca plant had partially obscured the Hartland D. Gowey marker for an untold number of years - but not any longer!
My thanks to Tim for locating this marker!
