Thanks Andy J2022! That makes sense.
I wonder if the 1WTS or 2WTS comment narrows that down to a section somehow?

I have two records from the same crematorium, one from 1952, one from 1958. I have sent a query in to the crematorium but I am guessing they will not answer quickly and I really need an answer on this by the end of the weekend.
Thanks

The Common Room / Register of Cremations abbreviations
« on: Thursday 09 February 23 15:33 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone help decipher what the following abbreviations mean on a Register of Cremations under "how ashes were disposed of"?
"G/R" (also recorded as "G of R")
"1 WTS"
"2 WTS"
"IETL"
I've tried dozens of different Google searches and I cannot find any reference!
Thanks

Hi Sh4rn4mo
Alethea Pyefinch who married Stansall Griffiths is in my direct ancestral line. Would you please share the details of the connection between her and James and Mary Rodd? I had thought her parents and grandparents were Henry Pyefinch/Mary Goodere and Henry Pyefinch/Margaret Godwine.
Thanks
Peter

Thanks for the response Arthur.
I don't have an image from the original parish register for this. I am relying for now on a transcription from the Sussex Family History Group. The transcription is:
FORENAME ---
SURNAME GRENIORS
BURIAL DATE 2-Aug
YEAR 1638
OTHER a cresimor of Thomas Greniors
PLACE Brighton
LOCATION St.Nicholas
Thanks also to Pauline. Whichever interpretation of "cresimor" is correct, it points to the same conclusion as the context which is that this was an infant mortality. Presumably "chrisom" and "cresimor" are both derivations of the Latin "crescimus" that Pauline highlighted.

I've come across two 17th century burial records for possible ancestors in Sussex England where the burial record has no first name only a surname but has the description: "a cresimor [or cresmor] of XXXX" where XXXX is the name of the father.
The context suggests it is referring to a child, perhaps the death of an unnamed baby, but when I tried to google "cresimor" or "cresmor" I get hardly any matches... a couple of other family history transcriptions that have the word but with no explanation, and some references to "cresimus" in Latin.
Can anyone tell me what this means in a 17th century British context? Thanks!
