    2. Robert W. King
    3. Hi folks! Recalling that there were some questions a while back about the abbreviations used in cemetery listings, I thought the following list cribbed from Cemeteries of Washington County might prove useful: ABBREVIATIONS ae aged b born c cemetery record ca about (circa) ch child or children d died or days old at death d - dau daughter FHN funeral home marker husb husband IFF information from family inf infant m months old at death m - md married n d no dates n m no marker o d only date s son of ssw same stone with w wife of WW World War y - yr years Other abbreviations are as found on the markers or those generally used in American literature. -- Robert W.
