Old English Transcription. Kilsyth, Scotland 1650.

Hi guys, Here I have a Scottish Baptism for William Young in 1650. It is the lower baptism in the image, below the blue line, that I am interested in. It is in Old English but with a hint of Scottish and/or Latin? Can someone help me with the missing words, please. ‘William’ and ‘same’ are abbreviated. I wonder if the word before his wifes name of Euphane may be a Latin definition for being his wife? Many Thanks, Dave.

Euphan is apparently a short but common nickname for Euphemia.

St Euphemia was martyred in 303AD....

Hi, Thanks both for your comments. Jenny, you are probably right as I cannot find a marriage for the parents.
I am still curious about the first word which appears before each Baptism. - Anyone else with ideas ?
Thanks, Dave.

As an aside I have Bankiers in Kilsyth, I wonder if Euphan is related.
