Title: Abbreviation in published family tree
Post by: Cornelius88 on Tuesday 28 January 25 11:26 GMT (UK)

I have a copy of a family tree.  in the space below the marriage details some of the lines point to 2 children, 3 children etc.

However some point to simply:  d.s.p     

Logically this would indicate no children, or "no issue" to use the legal term.  Has anyone encountered this and can tell me what these letters stand for?

Thanks for any help.

ThanK you Debra.  I thought it probably was Latin but couldn't think what it might be.
