Thankyou for that link - very useful.  Don't know why I didn't find it ages ago! :)

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Pipe Roll Hen II 1167
« on: Sunday 06 April 25 13:49 BST (UK)  »
ROLL OF 13 HENRY II (1166-1167) Staffordshire
"Collection for a History of Staffordshire" Vol 1 Page 47"

In the above Pipe Roll there are multiple names with the following phrase / abbreviations  after each name, as with Robert of Great Pipe:

Magna Pipa Roberti r.c. de dim. m. In th'ro lib. E. Q. E
Any ideas what the "r.c."  and the "E. Q. E" may mean?
I have assumed that de dim. m. In th'ro lib. is "half a mark in the book" - presumably a fee or rent or similar.

Thanks for that,
I already have my Haplotype (I-DF29).
Are you saying that the Y-111 will not give me anything more than that?  In which case I would need a Y-700 test.  Have I got that right?

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Y-DNA question
« on: Thursday 27 March 25 01:56 GMT (UK)  »
Hello
I have little experience with DNA testing, and would appreciate an experienced opinion.
I had an autosomal DNA test by Living DNA which provided me with haplogroup &  haplotype.  Not sure how many markers they use, but I think not many.  No names came up the same as mine, which was expected, but I do have sufficient documentation back to mid 1300s, but there is a gap at that point where I am unable to connect by documentation to earlier lines.
I want to proceed further with a Y-DNA test in an attempt to partly verify my “theoretical” genetics back to aprox 1100.
Which test would be the most suitable – will 111 markers be sufficient for that time range, or must I go for the Y-700?
Reading the many articles on the internet is somewhat confusing for an "amateur"!  Any ideas?

Thanks Bookbox - just a simple typo in the transcript, (ie: quem not quern). Not sure where I got it from! Didn't think to look in "Internet Archive".

Thanks.

In the following, from Wm Salt Library, Stafford, c1320.
I am unclear regarding the meaning of the bold words in the following:
Vivianus dominus de Standon Miles dmo Joh de Hawkeston
militi quern habeo in feudo de Onley test Jacob Pype


Help appreciated.
