First one:

Thomasine da[ughter] [of] Ric[hard] & Phillis [Windiott?]

Second one:

January the xiith [= 12th] A[nn]e the daughter of John Westcott & of Marye his wife

The bit above reads "Anne". This seems to be inserted to clarify the name which actually appears to be written as "Ame" in the text.

Third one:

Date is xth = 10th

Fourth one:

the viiith [=8th] of March
the xiith [= 12th] of March
xiii [13] of March

I largely agree with GR2's readings, except for the date of the second image.

I think this is a poorly formed x rather than a v, making it the xij^th = 12th.  (The superscript th belongs to the date, not the forename).

The easiest way to be sure is for you to post a larger clip showing the surrounding entries.

On closer inspection, you are right about the date, Horsleydown86. I have corrected my post in red.

Many thanks to you all.  Regards Bronwen
