Moultrie, Georgia - Tombstone of Life-size baby Elephant

There's a tombstone shaped like a life-size baby elephant in Moultrie, Ga. I have seen it at a small church outside of Moultrie. It is the white marble tombstone of a circus owner long ago. [Carolyn Cordell, 02/14/2004]

[RA: The circus owner, William F. Duggan, Sr., died in 1950 before his circus ever performed. His son commissioned a 5.5 ft. tall, 7-ft. long sculpture for the grave based on a photo of "Nancy," an elephant Duggan acquired in 1949.]
