Good Morning Bookbox,
My grateful thanks, super job!!
The names would relate to church wardens (of the Booths of Goldshaw, Barley and Wheatley, Roughlee and Old Laund that make up the parish) and remain as local families today. There is a Manknowles Farm in Barley, and depending on the date of the document, a strong possibility that both William Bulcock and Milo Nutter were related to the "Pendle Witches" hanged at Lancaster.
If I were to send you a further extract of the beginning of the document I wonder would you be kind enough to translate it. This may then give me an idea what the document relates to and possibly a date. Actually, if I also enclosed the signature on the document I may be able to establish the date if it is signed by a Bishop.
