The Iron Rock Ledges mentioned is an area of rock which lie just under the surface going a good half mile out to sea, the outer edge is marked by a navigation buoy and at very low tide the rock ledges can be seen above the surface.
The memorial was erected in 1997 by a niece with an additional dedication added by other family members in 1998 at the bottom.
