reference images and can find no clue as to what the scribe means by this. Is it ditto and line 4 grantee should be William Andre or is it indicating that the grantee should be Edgar Pickering (the name on the line below)?

    My guess: The Grantors line 4-8 are a group) - granting deed to grantee Edgar P Pickering (grantee line 6)

    Field Help also indicates: If multiple grantors were listed for a single transaction, index information about each one using separate entries in the data entry area. 

    This would mean separate Entries for grantors:

    4.Charles R Pickering )

    5.John D Pickering )

    6.Francis B Pickering ) ---> ) means they are a group All with grantee Edgar P Pickering (not William Andre on Entries 4 and 5)

    7.Cyrenus C Pickering )

    8.Catherine M Pickering )
