If by your question, you ask is crosses allowed on personal headstones, markers etc, the answer is Yes, in fact the Veterans Administration, who manages our National Cemetery's allow upwards of 30 plus types of religious symbols to be affixed to Personal Grave Markers, Head stones etc. Recently the VA, started allowing the use of the Wiccan Symbols to be used on Markers, etc. I hope this answers your question.
