Ellis, I asked my Slovak husband and he couldn't help (in spite of the fact that he goes around chanting Christos Voskres at Easter). *smile* Peter Nagy [email protected] Cilistovska 20 931 01 Samorin Slovak Republic http://www.centroconsult.sk translated my husband's grandfather's birth certificate for us. Perhaps he can help. I'm not sure the email address is still valid, but the website is still there, and has a help forum.

H. S. E. J." are frequently found on the grave markers. Can anyone of Slovak history help me to learn the significance of this inscription? Thanks.
