Nick Benson's handiwork can be seen across the country - his meticulous portfolio immortalized on headstones, war monuments and memorials. The stone carving craft that he's perfected dates back to ancient times, and is a Benson family tradition. Michelle Miller reports on the family of craftsmen whose work is embedded in American history.

Wow until i saw this clip I always thought they were done by machines. What an awsome trade. To have it run in the family for over 300 years. That's admirable.

Must make decent money, I do not think there is much competition in stone carving

Hard to believe that in the 21st century a reporter would say "... craft is among the most ancient known to man". I would say "most ancient known to humanity". Anyway, a very interesting report.
