Can any kind scribe give me help on the following entries in the burials at Upholland,with regard to the latin generosi and generosa.
I have been trawling through latin translations and son in law and daughter in law have been mentioned,though I can't relate D-in -law to the last entry.
Edwardus filius Hugonis Houlme de Holland generosi 4 Sep 1620
Maria Marshall de Holland generosa 14 Sep 1620
TIA

Is this a stillborn boy child?

Strictly, yes. But unless you can find examples of tacita nata being used for a female in the same register, it might be safer to go with just stillborn child.

Thanks again Finbar and Kerrywood,but Finbar are you reading that entry as
G Smyth as being the father of the child or G.Smyth as being the tacitus natus.
I am assuming that he was the father of the stillborn child which was probably not baptised at all.
