I think Jim's remark was "Tongue in Cheek" humour and not meant to be taken seriously  ;D

As you can imagine men wore clothes like these over a long period. I would suggest it could be any time from around the 1870's to 1890's.
Strange but I thought Funeral Directors buried the dead further away. Maybe they were running out of space at the Church.

I sincerely doubt it's for burying a body, more likely plumbing or digging a channel for a rock walkway.

Kinda guessed that, but thought I'd reply, just in case. I know people who would actually believe that. lol
I just like to do photo restores.

Well, I guess this is a ... dead issue... . Perhaps this was an undertaking that shouldn't have been done. I can dig it though. (queue the rim shot)
