The missing (altar) stone

Many years ago there was a marble stone that said the spot in the picture is where the first altar was constructed in the early 1800s. Years later I discovered that the stone was missing. Now this is history! What happened to the stone? I asked the Parish pastor. He told me he had it and would have it put back. That was about ten years ago. A person who has a blog on churches informed me he will look it. Let's hope the stone comes back.

Dear Mr. Shepherd, this is Nikhil from 'Beautiful Indian Churches' Blog. I have been able to locate the original Stone that stood at the site shown in your blog. I am also trying to get a replica made and put up there. I am in Lucknow for few days so I thought of taking up this small project. Thank you once again for bringing this to my knowledge.
