hi, thanks for looking and thanks for your comment. I'm of pennsylvania dutch descent on my moms side, I have been around the HEX signs for quite a while, they are nice and its interesting to know what some of them mean. There was a woman at a flea mkt where I had a booth and she thought the same thing that it was occult lol. The Irish have similar signs, if you are on facebook at all there is a page for pennsylvania dutch. There is also a book called ferhoodled english. thank you have a great day and outten the light.

I don't know it, just remember some things from a book, I had an uncle down in pa which I never met, his name was roe or rowe palm, he had a daughter whom I did meet her name was ruth palm marshall, the lewistown area. So like I said I just remember a few things from a book FERHOODLED ENGLISH. have a great day. Tim
