Help with grave marker info

As a nation state, Italy has emerged only in 1871. Until then the country was politically divided into a large number of independant cities, provinces and islands. The currently available evidences point out to a dominant Etruscan, Greek and Roman cultural influence on today's Italians.

Help with grave marker info

Post by vtharp60 »

Hi All-
I just got back from Ivrea and took some photos of grave markers there in the local cemetery. I'm uploading them to billiongraves but I'm in a pickle trying to transcribe the info.
I think I have figured out "ved." ; meaning "the widow of" but other stones say, for instance,

Burzio Aurelia
N. Mussano (in which the "N." is a smaller typeface.)

or

Burzio Maria Teresa
N. Avignone

Does the "N." stand for Nee, as in the American word? Or "nate" as in "born as"?
Thanks to anyone who can help!

from what I understand they are buried with married name, but Aurelia maiden name was Mussano and Maria Teresa maiden name was Avignone..
