       And I've just made a liar of myself, since if you look at the headstone transcription from earlier I've used round brackets for the uncertain information. My excuse is that this was done during my early transcribing efforts. I have since adopted the square bracket as standard in these situations.

One word left to decipher "festid"  or what? Latin? or a place name? or what?

Which register is this taken from? Who is Thomas?

It looks to me like feast day, to use a modern spelling. A google showed 19th Feb to be the Feast Day of St. Barbatus.One for the cogniscenti I think!
