Summary0003904: Ghost appeared even with coffin
DescriptionEarly in Fortress mode, two dwarves died. It took a while to reclaim the bodies, since there was water involved, but they were eventually moved to a refuse pile, temporarily. Coffins were built and placed and their remains moved into them.

Later, one of the dwarves appeared as a forlorn ghost. Checking his coffin, it claims that it belongs to him, but is not listed as the final resting place as it is for the other dwarf.

Perhaps the dwarf died in multiple pieces and you were unable to entomb all of the pieces?

It is possible that some of the pieces were missed. I tried to gather from the forum if this was a requirement or not. If it is required that all pieces be entombed, then I think it may be safe to close this issue.
