Robert Holme 1723

Hi
Can anyone please tell me from the photo what comes after Robert Holme? Thanks -

[Maiden Stone]

Do you mean words after Holme on the rest of the line or the entry below Robert Holme?

Robertus Holme do Archoland sepult 7 Februar
Margareta Wallor ? Nallor? vid do _ _ _ _ _ sepult 11 Februar

Robert Holme do Archoland buried 7 February
Margaret Wallor widow do  _ _ _ _  buried 11 February

Was Archoland or similar a place or a parish? I can't decipher Margaret's abode.
"do" (ditto) may be for ditto for parish on line above.

Hi
It’s a birth record, I was hoping to find Roberts parents, but I cannot read it.
Thanks

I read it as 'de (of) Archolme'. Also I don't think it can be a birth record because 'sepult' means buried, as maidenstone said.

I've just looked at it again and it dawned on me that it's clearly "de" not "do".  So ignore the last line of my previous reply. Wasn't concentrating.

Added. Re. Kathleen's reply about birth record. Was it a combined baptisms and burials register? Some churches used the same book for both.
All entries in the extract were burials ("sep" or "sepult"). At least 2 were widows.

The extract is not from the parish register, but from the bishop’s transcripts. They include baptisms and burials. Halfway down the page there is a section-heading Sepulturæ, meaning Burials. This record is definitely a burial.
