MARKER #16 – The Crypts

The remains of two Crypts still exist on the Island that remind us of the hazards early island residents faced. The Crypts are reported to have been built to house the remains of John McIntosh’s sister-in-law and his daughter, who both reportedly died in 1808. There are no existing remains in the crypts at this time, and it is questionable whether or not they were ever in use. Unfortunately these crypts are the target of much vandalism, thus they are closed to the public and their location is not advertised.
