TY - JOUR KW - Tombstones KW - Pennsylvania Germans KW - Waterloo County KW - Mennonites KW - Cemeteries AU - Nancy-Lou Patterson AB - Many of the Mennonite tombstones in Waterloo County are stylistically similar to Pennsylvania-German tombstones, particularly with respect to construction features, design, the use of motifs, and the wording of inscriptions. The Pennsylvania style was superceded by typical Canadian Victorian styles after 1854, implying that the Mennonites' ethnic identity had become diluted. [J. H.
