jccantrell: 17:21 Aug 4, 2006: Any pictures? or a URL for the museum?
Armorel Young: 17:51 Aug 4, 2006: I don't see any evidence for this having to do with coats of arms - after all, a Blechshild can just be a metal plate, nothing to do with shields.Because it's a Zyklus, I'd think it more likely they are engraved with some story- praps of a fishing exploit

coffin plate, also: coffin plaques, casket plates, cascet plaques
说明:
Coffin plates often contain birth and death dates, and sometimes the place of birth or the occupation of a deceased person.

While not technically a true vital record, coffin plates can be seen as a substitute for vital records or at the least a good clue. In the case of people who died before civil registration it might be one of the few written records genealogists will find in their hunt for that brick wall ancestor!

If you want to know more about what things qualify as a true Vital Records there is a good article at the Olive Tree.

Remember when searching for Coffin Plates on the net they are sometimes referred to as Coffin Plaques, Casket plates or Casket Plaques

Coffin plate
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Coffin plates are decorative adornments attached to a coffin that can contain various inscriptions like the name and death date of the deceased or a simple terms of endearment.

They are usually made of a soft metal like lead, pewter, silver, brass, copper or tin. Coffin plates go back as far as the 1600s and were reserved for people of wealth. Through the centuries, more people were able to afford the luxury of a coffin plate and with the industrial revolution the cost of the plates by the mid-1800s decreased so much that almost every family could afford to have one put on the coffin of their loved ones.

When coffin plates began increasing in popularity, the practice of removing the plates from the coffin before burial became the trend as the coffin plates were often removed to be kept as mementos by the loved ones of the deceased. This practice peaked in the late 1800s.

In Australia coffin name plates are legally required in most states for both burial and cremation as a means of identification of the deceased
