Article "appoggiatura" says: "The 19th century brought still further changes in 
the treatment of the appoggiatura. The long appoggiatura became absorbed in the 
ordinary notation, and the short appoggiatura was invariably indicated by a 
small note with a single stroke across its stem, called a grace note or 
(erroneously) an acciaccatura."

So it suggests that the stroked grace notes became the normal way of notate in 
the 19th century. But you need to check what is notated in the original 
manuscript, because engravers may at will translate into modern notation.
