(if they are mentioned). Since they aren't members of the family, I thought they should be left out, but after thinking about it again, maybe someone is looking for that particular surname and didn't know their ancestor was a funeral director or pastor. I'd appreciate some advice please. Thanks in Advance, Marilyn Marilyn- If the author of the post included them--leave them. If the author didn't, you have no obligation to add them. Joan
