Thanks Tyuti1668. I must have a closer look at the headstone, to make sure I did not make a transcription mistake, which is entirely possible. On this individual's headstone, he came from 岡州
Regards, Ah Gin

Henry, tyuti1668, OK, let's see the source document, a photo posted on our Chinese Heritage Interest Network chinese-heritage.tripod.com/ web site. The left hand column I think it reads as follows: 世居蓢原村人 The Top Row, which is the County of Origin, reads 岡州 (Kong Chow) which is 新會 Hope that helps in pin pointing. Regards, Ah Gin

Henry, Yes, it is strange. On my compaq where I do all my web page authoring, and when I post the photo, I can see the picture. Yet on another PC, running Win 2000, when I access our Forum, all I see is an icon "Image Hosted by Tripod". I wonder if Tripod is causing it. No matter, I am sorry to have to impose this on you. Try accessing the image directly from my web site. It's Headstone 14, in case you loose the place mark. The URL is chinese-heritage.tripod.com/headstone%2014b.JPGMeanwhile, let's try posting the photo again, and see if I can make this work. The first one is Photo gallary, the 2nd one is the photo itself. All the Chinese characters are as posted previously. Many thanks for your patience. Ah Gin
