the meaning of

[kovel]

I would like to ask what : SENT AD VERE means it was writtern on birth register as: born 20 mar 1791 (sent ad vere may 3 1791).
Thanks in advance
Kovel.

Hi

Vere - means true, so maybe the birth of May 3 1791 was thought to be more the true date.

Hi,

Do you mean a Baptism Register? 

Perhaps born on 20 Mar 1791 and baptised on 3 May 1791.

You may well be correct. Must get my glasses changed I read it as the 20 Mar and 3 Mar

Hi

Me again!

Is the word definately 'sent' as there is a word 'sunt' which means 'they were'

[percy porter]

Vere means 'truthfully', Verus means 'true'

Baptisms would normally read something like this,

Die 20th Decemberis 1913 nata et die 25th Januarii 1914 baptizata est

Born on the 20th December 1913 and baptised on 25th January 1914

and so on

H Folks,
Thanks to you all for making sense of this. Yes it was a baptism register, my mistake it was a long day.
The word sent could possibly be sunt, the wording was hard to read.
Thanks
Kovel.
