Moultrie - Berlin, Georgia - Tombstone of Life-size Baby Elephant

The graveyard in Moultrie with a lifesize statue of a baby elephant is just behind the Pleasant Grove Primitive Baptist Church. In addition to the circus owner's grave, there are many family plots, as well as many Confederate soldiers' grave sites. [John Holmes, 03/29/2008]

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.]
