Help deciphering plaque please Completed

[Rabbit B]

Hi Jim,

Nice to see you on our thread, welcome to the Graveyard Gang!

Poor MJB must be very tired he has worked so hard on this!  How about giving him a group hug! <hug>  cannot get the icon to post!  Paula Help!

I have a site that will translate every European language to English, I will go a way and google to see if there is one that does Latin!

Can't have our team leader getting despondent!  Let us make up a song! 

We are the boys and girls well known as workers at the GGT, and every day all fresh we line up to see the pics we like and shout aloud with glee,
we like to laugh and have a sing song, just a happy crowd are wee-ee
we're so very happy we are the G of MJB

Apologies to the Minors of a well known film going community of the 40's!

If you were one of them you will know the tune

The first word looks 'Duc'

The third maybe 'Patria'  (patriotic)  ?

I can't make out the second word.

Linda

[PaulaToo]

Is the middle word AMORA

nuff for tonight...see you all tomorrow...

Looking him up I find he is the Baron of Evesham. Looking now the line after Baron could be:

<?> Evesham

He died in 1727 which would be MDCCXXVII

looks like Juno on line above year and 18 might be duodeviginti. Could duodeviginti end in o

Hi Gang
I haven't got much and what I do have I'm not sure of

Duc         Amora         Patria

N                                                       iu  ay
e   a     Brooke AM

       Lax              to

       MDCCXXX111
         pri     x   nium
bo         Honi            D                             o
Nicholas Lechmere Baronet

mu        imi  rear         jus Ne       e
              ildrr

It doesn't make sense all these stray letters - I can clearly see 'j's' but there were no j's I don't think, unless it's not all in latin?

Hi GG
My brother Bob (LBobble on here) and I were following the Graveyard Gang main thread with excitement and great interest. It seemed the most creative and innovative development in the Restoration site in recent times. So I was sad to see it locked on Wednesday - just as I was getting ready to post up a couple of sarcophagi (is that the correct plural???)) of our ancestors  one of which is a bit of a challenge.
Can I ask if this thread is a replacement and if I may post them here?
David
ps that's another way of asking if I can join the gang?

[Emjaybee]

I still  want to know who changed the title and why.

The next post answers that and SHOUTED AT US TOO!

As so scalled TL consider the graveyard project abandoned.

It could have worked, we seem to have uused the wrong approach.

May I just point out, that there are no "gangs" on RootsChat.

Can I ask if this thread is a replacement and if I may post them here?

This thread is not a replacement, simply a new request for help.

If anybody needs help deciphering, be it a will, a gravestone, a plaque or a certificate, then

    Just post a new topic on the appropriate board, asking for help.

There is no need to ask whether you can "join in", if you are a member of RootsChat, you are already "in"
