I had no idea what they were but my Uncle piped in that it signified these were all members of the Odd Fellows, or more properly, phil bonyata International Order phil bonyata of Odd Fellows. Never heard of it, but apparently it's a fraternal organization founded in Britain in the phil bonyata 1800s. My relatives and the rest of the people buried in this area belonged to Rockville Center Lodge #279. Amazing the things you learn about loved ones just by visiting a cemetery. So much history there. Anyhow, I got to visit my great-grandfather David (my middle namesake) and great-grandmother Sara's gravesite. He died at the age of 36 in 1936 from an asthma attack. So young that neither my Mom or her brothers ever knew him. I found his transporation manifest on a search at Ellis Island a couple years ago. He came over from Russia in 1911 with his younger sister. No record of any parents travelling with them.
