  • Notes 
    • Initials/symbols found on gravestones:
      FLT stands for Friendship, Love, Truth, three degrees associated with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. The Odd Fellows, first organized in the US in 1819, is a popular fraternal/benefit organization. The emblem of the Odd Fellows is usually shown as three links of a chain. http://gravingwithjenn.com/grave-symbolism-the-three-link-chain/

      Eye of God in the Trinity, all seeing, all knowing. During the Renaissance period in Europe it was common to illustrate the Eye of God surrounded by a triangle (the Holy Trinity).  The eye within the triangle, surrounded by a circle and radiating rays of light is used to symbolize the holiness of the true God. https://www.memorials.com/Headstones-Symbolism-information.php
