Greetings Everyone :)

My research is in various counties of England.  We think there may be a Welsh branch of one family but have no concrete evidence of this.  Also it is thought that one branch of my family originate in Scotland.

I also have branches in America, Canada and New Zealand. One time a branch was in Kenya, Africa but returned.

A recent discovery is the possibility of relatives in Jamaica but it is not yet proven.

The word you're looking for is aftægtskone, meaning retired woman, female pensioner.

Can you provide the sentence in which it figured, or was it just this word without any context?
