thank you very much, i'll keep telling my kids it means they were pirates, better than them asking "what does the skull and crossbones mean dad?" and me saying "oh thats just a way of stating the bleeding obvious, the person in this grave must be clearly be deemed to have died, on or thereabouts the date encribed on the stone, you see, rather than being a sign that the deceased was a rogue, a vagabond, a pirate of the can a beans, its merely reflects that this person is in fact broon breid!!"
