The stone is very solid and cannot be wiggled. I have never seen any other upright stones so rectangle shaped anywhere in the region.

Either an uprighted corner stone in a foundation.
Or a marker for a grave.

depends, did you find it on a farm?

It is neither I believe. It is as a mountain starts to get steep at the base. Would be very difficult to dig a grave, much more suitable ground away from the mountain.

Upturned stones were also used as property corner markers back in the day

Yes I am aware of that and have seen those. In this area they are usually 6-8” tall and about 6” wide and have engraved on them there correlation to the section. This stone has a turkey foot engraved on top.

A grave marker for a turkey?

We'd need to see a picture of the Turkey foot but sounds like a broad arrow mark.
