Help with #Latin #Palaeography please! It's a 1518 account for a Corpus Christi procession with a sum interspersed. What is the Latin contraction after Su[m]m[a] and before 'xxxviij s'? It seems to start 'pri', as used throughout on 'price', etc. The other loop is not part of the 'p' in pakthreid.

I can confirm that the 'steady' hands of seventeenth-century surgeons were no better at handwriting than any other doctor... Any ideas what the surname of 'Johwhn' might have been? Do you think he actually knew? #palaeography #surgeonsproject

An image of an extract of PROB 11/26/288 Will of John Spurstowe of Spurstowe, Cheshire 04 February 1540 - black sixteenth century writing on a white background. We are asking for help to decipher a sentence that we think says 'Also I geve and bequeth to my Cosyn Hughe Aldersaye of chester an Eyrye of Sivannys yn prest lande poole'.

Looking for a sense check, or indeed some #palaeography help for this Tudor will: I read this as 'Also I geve and bequeth to my Cosyn Hughe Aldersaye of chester an Eyrye of Sivannys yn prest lande poole'.

'Priestland' is a name - but can anyone help with 'Eyrye of Sivannys'? What could this be?
