SIR James B Barnes ESQ. III

Sir James B. Barnes ESQ. III, a Knight of the British Realm, no less, has a paving stone in Quincy dedicated to his memory.

A google search for his name reveals nothing. And so his memory lives on, humbly achieving immortality, in that small paving stone, next to William and Mary Kelly, in that historic, blue-collar town in the state of Massachussets.

The clash of titles and implausible III probably tells you enough about his character. There is a little more information here... http://www.bookrags.com/highbeam/a-historic-move-in-cambridge-168-year-hb/

On the plus side of things, a google search for "Sir James B Barnes" now does at least return some values - pointers to this blog entry admittedly, but better than nothing, eh?
