Beside the tomb of Long Ghaffar there exist the tomb of his son Long Seri.
What is written at this tomb is closer to the truth. That he was the Raja (ruler of) at Limbat cum the Prime Minister (for the state of Kelantan).
Whatever it still looks like an effort to overly glorify their family. This could be seen when Long Seri's position as the Prime Minister is stated as penasihat (advisor) to Kota Bahru. This is as if giving the picture that the territory of Limbat was once of the same standard as Kota Bahru and the descendants of Long Yunus who resided in the territory of Kota Bahru were just rules of that territory only, not the whole of Kelantan.
Actually the position as the Raja (ruler of) Limbat was just an underling ruler position which bows down to the ruler at Kota Bahru. Just like there are rulers at other subordinate territories in Kelantan like Banggol, Bukit Marak, Salor and Kampung Laut.
Apapun biar dinyatakan batu nesan yang dipakai ini hampir serupa yang terdapat di makam Long Yunus. Malah ia lebih hampir pada batu nesan yang terdapat di sebelah makam Chik Siti. Lihat Makam (Tomb of) Chik Siti Wan Kembang? dan Makam (Tomb of) Long Yunus.
Whatever let it be stated that the tombstones used here are also similar to one available at the tomb of Long Yunus. In fact it is closer to the tombstones used beside the tomb of Chik Siti. Look at Makam (Tomb of) Chik Siti Wan Kembang? and Makam (Tomb of) Long Yunus.
