Re: G K Chesterton

Wasn't St T the origin for many of the "witch hunts" back in the day?

Seems that quite a lot of the time they were innocent, and as the Vatican records are sealed until (IIRC) 2110 we may never know.

Also relevant: it was said that you can tell someone's religious or other beliefs from the mark on (usually) the top of their stone. Often Freemasons had a combination of the set square and protractor or some other symbol, and other denominations use a specific combination unique to them. Also an anchor symbol usually means they either were lost at sea or lived a lot of their life there.
