I’m not sure what decade he build his huge limestone garden that he dedicated to his wife, it may be the early 1900’s. He knew the secret of moving huge rock on top of one another like the Egyptians did and built bed, table, love seat and large monuments for his wife.He never revealed his secret but it was a modern marvel. Anyone know who I’m talking about?

I believe you may be refering to Edward Leedskalnin who built our of coral in Florida. It was not for his wife however, but his girlfriend who decided not to marry him one day before his wedding in Latvia.
He was very secretive and hence there is wild speculation about how he did the lifting. He did this about 1923. You can google it as the Coral Castle.
