So it seems I now have the complete words for both texts - except just one in the probate record: it's the penultimate word in the 4th line, between Norvice(nsis) and before xvijo. Could you possibly help me with that?
Curie Cons(istorialis) Ep(iscop)alis Norvice(nsis) Ep(iscopi) &c... of the Episcopal Consistory Court of the Bishop of Norwich etc.
(sorry I missed the
Episcopi earlier)
btw the 2nd word in the 2nd line of the inventory record looks like Anger, surname of the 1st executor, rather than armiger, and I think the 4th word is Frances/Francis.
It is not written
Anger - there are too many minims. But if you already have the name from elsewhere, it may be written
Annger here. Another possibility is
Aunger. But there may be another letter obscured by the descender of the
f from the line above.
The 4th word is
Isac(um), as in reply #3. I can understand why the first letter, with a bar across, might be read as
F, but it is definitely
I. Compare the upper-case
I in
Inven(tarium) in the first line. The following letters are clearly
...sacu with a suspension above (for the final
m), so I'm confident it's
Isacum (= Isaac).
