18. Paul’s Tomb – Built in 1910 by Rambler Paul. The tomb sits a few hundred feet up from the shores. Provisions were made for eight coffins within the tomb. Mrs. E.G. Paul was buried here in June, 1914, and Rambler Paul was buried here in November, 1916. No other family members were ever laid to rest here.
