When I first started reading this article I imagined someone running around his backyard with a shovel digging for bones. That’s not exactly the case here, but if you’ve ever watched If Walls Could Talk then you know that gravestones are often found on private property. I’ve often wondered if it’s legal to dig up private cemeteries on your own property. I suppose it varies by jurisdiction. Honestly, I don’t care enough to actually look it up - I just needed something to write about.

Note that I do not condone digging up graves, even if it is your grandmother!
