Challenge in Latin
« on: Friday 01 October 04 03:51 BST (UK) »
Have recently come across this style of writing on Baptismal Record in Birmingham

(olim FLANNERY ) conjugum

This come immediatley after the mother's name - am I correct in assuming  that the wording means "nee FLANNERY - within the marriage" - that is that the mother's maiden name was FLANNERY and that the child was born in wedlock.
