Unless the official name for this monument is "Charles Irving Thornton Tombstone" the article should really be called "Tombstone of Charles Irving Thornton". violet/riga(t)13:51, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The name according to the National Register is "Charles Irving Thornton Tombstone", and that's how it shows up in the official lists, so far as I know. A little awkward, and I wouldn't be entirely averse to a move; the only reason I created it under this name is because that's what both the NRHP and VLR use. --User:AlbertHerringIo son l'orecchio e tu la bocca: parla!01:04, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
