REMEMBRANCE

What this record means

The record shows that REMEMBRANCE is no longer active – it was cancelled on May 27 2006 because the registrant, Matthews Resources, Inc., did not file a required Section 8 declaration, and the USPTO marked the registration as dead. The only goods listed are “cremation casket” in International Class 020, so the closest area of concern for anyone using a similar name would be products that are funeral‑related or specifically caskets. The record does not give Matthews Resources, Inc. control over every possible use of the word “remembrance,” only over that narrow product description. Because the mark was on the Principal Register and never moved to the Supplemental Register, the prosecution history simply reflects its approval, publication for opposition, registration, and later cancellation, without any descriptiveness refusals. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 event, or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan a name for funeral‑industry goods, but the risk is far lower for unrelated products.
