Other Notes:

[N] Symbols at the top of this stone include a crown, indicating a male grave, with a lion on either side [the one on the right less-clear].
[N2] The literal 'God-fearing' is a translation that is widely-accepted, meaning 'devout'. The word 'God' appears as אלוקים Elokim rather than אלוהים Elohim – a device employed to avoid inscribing this divine name.
[N7] The abbreviation נ'ע stands for נשמתו עדן or נוחו עדן – 'his soul (in) Eden' or 'his resting place (in) Eden' referring to the celestial Garden of Eden.
