Dave: I thought I had finished (!), but at the last minute this burial turns out to be very important to me.

Can you please help? (esp. with the final column, which I think may be the key to it all).

Thank you.

Mike

Hi Mike,

I've been itching to help but was always too slow or couldn't read the docs!  ::)

This one is easier.

The final column states that the deceased leaves behind 4 children of full age: 1 son and 2 legitimate daughters plus one illegitimate daughter.

Is that what you were hoping to hear?  ;)

Best regards,
Karen
