<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I did a Bing search on <EM><U>1844 & Oregon &
Wiss*</U>,</EM> and it turned up some genealogy records for people
entering the Oregon territory in 1844, including several people named
"Wiss".</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Short of that -wiss- is an abbreviation of wissenshaft
which means roughly 'scientific knowledge' which is pretty far a field for a
cryptic tombstone inscription.</FONT></DIV>
