Can anyone decipher the (poor quality) last word on the first line and the first word on the second line of this marriage record from the village of Myddle in Shropshire? They clearly relate to the parentage of the bride "Johanne", and I have some ideas, but I don't want to corrupt your own thinking with them!
I'm perfectly happy with the rest of the Latin text, and the Welsh patronymic.
Thanks ...

Is it famulae, a female household servant, followed by her master's name?

Thanks, GR2 - I hadn't thought of that. Good possibility. But what then of the preceding word? Looks like < Dich > ??? ... but what could that mean ?
