Thanks! I have had another look, and I think it must say No PM. That makes sense, and the letters could certainly be interpreted that way.
Thanks everyone for replying.

It just might have something to do with blood (Phlebotomy).

One set of results from a web search came up with Phlebotomy qualifications, the course work numbers starting with PLB.

PLB 291L Phlebotomy Internship
PLB 150S Laboratory Techniques (Offered ONLY in Fall Semester)
PLB 291R Phlebotomy Seminar

A different site- Phlebotomy Certificate of Completion (PLB)
****A phlebotomist is skilled in blood collection and the preparation of certain specimens for diagnostic laboratory testing, as ordered by a physician.*****

On Saturday I received a Death Cert. Cause of death Broncho pneumonia. Then it says No P.m. which I take to mean No Post mortem.

Hope this helps. The death was in 1931

Sometimes it says how long the person has had the disease..eg.2 weeks, 4 months, 3 years..perhaps it's an abbreviation for a time period?

I have a death certificate which states cause of death as Pulmonary tuberculosis and what looks like " no plb", but the writing is very curly! Does anyone know what the plb might be or mean?
Thanks,
Karen
