  • help with Latin please

    OK these from my newly discovered 1615 Visitations of Northumberland :D
    this is a "modern" transcription, so any errors of syntax or grammar are not mine

    Thomas Armorer sonne and heire aetat. 30 annor' 1615

    am I right in thinking this means he was aged 30 at the time of the Visitation?

    (and a nephew)
    Ephraim aetat unius anni 1615 = aged 1 in 1615?

      thanks Phoenix, I failed my O level (more years ago than I care to remember) but some things stick, don't they!

        The worrying thing, is I can sometimes understand something, but wouldn't be able to tell you whether it was Latin or French:o
