Harold Mytum,in his paper on External Commemoration in Britain, Ireland and New England shows two examples of 17th-century headstones bearing the crossed I. This paper is available on-line: Post-Medieval Archaeology 40/1 (2006), 96-100. George Thomson who carries out research on inscriptional paleography has an interesting paper also available on-line: Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 131 (2001), 349–373. My own area of interest is in 18th-century headstones and my study area is Dublin, Ireland. I have not, so far, come across the crossed I on any headstones in Ireland. Fionnuala
