Please be aware that the above signs will be easily misinterpreted by
german persons.
'°' may be misinterpreted as 'o' which means 'engaged'
'x' means killed in war in Germany
')(' may be misinterpreted as '[]' which means 'buried'

There is a more complete list of german genealogical signs (with
english translation) available
at http://www.genealogienetz.de/misc/gensig.html

Kind regards,

Juergen
