Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Purchases in 1698
« on: Monday 19 February 24 09:18 GMT (UK)  »
Yes, yes, yes thank you both so much  You are extremely good at this.  Ok so roods and not rods and the rest is simply wonderful.  A friend and I have discovered James Medlycott of Ven's notebook, begun in 1698, at The Archives, history heaven!  It details his purchase of the Ven Estate and a large part of the borough of Milborne Port.  There are 78 pages all told so I may be back ...
Sincere thanks again

Aghhhh!  I had missed this but fortunately came across your post when I was double checking info.  Great spot goldie61, thank you so much!  A connection between Thomas Ward and William Mylward - brilliant.  That is very helpful and good to know.  I will add it to my notes.

Mm, that's interesting.  The parish registers for Milborne Port 1538-1598 were copied onto parchment by the then vicar William White and arranged in alphabetical order by Christian name.  This is the first time I have found this to be helpful as opposed to extremely unhelpful.  I can't see any sign of a Thomasin, although I did find a burial for a Johan wife of Thomas in 1579.  Going forward (or is it backwards?) I shall bear Thomasin in mind.

Many thanks both

Thank you, thank you, thank you, your help is invaluable!

I hadn't come across the name Owdal/Owdale either but I have found it here https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C7494555 so it seems to be correct.
