    3. Ruth, I think you will find, if you look at the full page, that "Do" means "ditto entry in line above". I suspect that "Grd" means "ground", but I do not know the context of your entry. What is stated at the top of the page columns?

    3. Hi Ruth I suspect it is "Do" which is an abbreviation for Ditto, and means "same as above" So Do Grd I would interpret as same as above interment fees, for Ground Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 28/11/2013 16:06, [email protected] wrote: > This is a quotation re a burial & I am wondering what "Do Grd" means? > >>From the Dumbarton Cemetery Cash book: > "To Cash from Mr. Lang Lang for interment fee for the following" and on 27th > March "to cash from Hugh Hagen for interment fees Do Grd." > > Any help appreciated. > > Ruth
