philkai Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Hi all I could do with a little help from your learned people translating this bit of a 1603 parish record. I have enough trouble with joined up writing but when its in latin I am totally lost. I can make out the "Elizabeth Proudlove " and i think the last bit is January but what does the rest mean? I am hoping it will give details as to whether it was the wife or daughter of George Proudlove if not its back to the drawing board Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmund Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 My reading of it is: Elizabeth Proudlove sepulta fuit 24th die January = Elizabeth Proudlove was buried on 24th January Sorry, doesn't seem to give any information about her relatives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philkai Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 Thanks Edmund You are indeed the font of all knowledge (lol). At least I got another 170 years further back with that particular line, hit the proverbial brick wall with my own name in Handsworth in the 1790's Thanks again for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
