Man Visits Mother's Grave, Finds His Own Already Occupied Beside Her

Wednesday, May 14, 2008

COLERAIN TOWNSHIP, Ohio —  A southwest Ohio man who planned to be buried next to his mother found someone else already in his grave.

David L. Bingham says someone who shares his name has taken over his final resting place in Colerain Township. He said he hadn't visited his mother's grave since 2005, but was surprised to find someone had been buried next to her in 2006.

Bingham said the cemetery called it an error and offered to move his mother, the other David Bingham or to have Bingham's cremated ashes buried between them. He says he rejected their options.

The two David Binghams are not related.

Colerain Township is about 20 miles northwest of Cincinnati.
