Request for help with two words in 1637-38 Cheshire burial entry
« on: Tuesday 24 November 20 09:00 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
Please can someone help with the attached ? I am stumped on the word after what I think is the word 'wife's'. As the deceased, Thomas Roberts, was survived by his widow, Anne, I know it can't be 'side' or something similar but I cannot work it out.
My best effort is:

“Thomas Roberts buried at his wives [?] xxx and in
the south [A]ile under Mr Birkheneds childs [?] stone
the 21th day of [March]”.

Thank you in advance.

'his wives peu end.......'

You spotted it goes on to say 'in the south ile', so that would make sense.

pue = pew
Ile = aisle

Not quite sure why you've struck through the rest of your post? looks fine as a transcription.

I was just about to say the same - pue (pew) - but goldie61 beat me to it!

Hi, both,
Thank you for your swift and helpful replies. It makes perfect sense - but only after you pointed it out.
As to the 'strikethrough' - not sure what happened there - it was not intended.
Best wishes.

When you put the s inside square brackets into your text (see the image), you created an HTML del tag for beginning strikethrough.  As it was not closed, it carries on throughout the rest of your text.

Hi, horselydown86,
TVM for that. It will remind me to double-check my posts after uploading.
