    Default Translation needed please

    Can anyone help with the word LUDIMAG - I came up with 'public games' but how does one put that together with a burial ?

    Probably short for Ludimagister (Latin) - teacher.

    If you are sure it is not part of a name then put it in the notes. You can suggest a meaning if you like or leave it to the researcher to decide.

    As Kerrywood says, almost certainly schoolmaster.
