Word identification, 1598
« on: Tuesday 23 June 20 21:39 BST (UK) »
Hey all,

There's two words I can't seem to make out in a 1598 parish register entry, and I was wondering if anyone could lend a hand.

My transcription attempt:

'Rose the daughter the daughter (sic) of John Wildie [?] of Aston was baptised the 23rd day of April in the house [?] Wheaton'.

All thoughts and suggestions appreciated.  :)

Ah! Thank you Bookbox, that makes a lot of sense. I've not seen that style of fancy 'J' before.  :)
