Hi, Mona, I have had to use compiled cemetery book from the past (the oldest) I could find. They may could read the word or words at that time. Then will all the other help you maybe can come up with guess. Mildred Hi All, I was in Baltimore this past week and finally located the grave of our oldest immigrant ancestor. He is in Baltimore Cemetery (even though they had earlier told me he wasn't there). My cousin and I went to look at the stone and could read all but one word on it. We would love to know what that one word says. If anyone is going to Baltimore Cemetery anytime and wants to take a stab at reading the stone, please email me and I will tell you where it is--it is very easy to find. I will be home by Sat. and will reply then. We tried casting shadows and that worked for all but this word. We tried tracing with our fingers--no luck. We tried a rubbing, but it wasn't clear. Maybe someone else is bettter at reading the old, worn stones. We would be very grateful. Thanks! Mona
