Some of the Latin is unusal. Some of the most difficult words are within the bad copy portions of this. I did not actually have a lunch today, I will work on it this evening. I may have to dig up mine to get the actually spelling of some of the words I find questionable in the beginning of this document. I should have no problem with the rest of the text- although I have not read through it all given the "headache" that my work has given me. It would seem that the current events of the election has made the patients coming to our office to be abrassive and rude. i.e. my headache. It would appear the attorney who wrote this document was better schooled then the attornies that work in the Isle of Wight County and other counties I have worked on. For the Latin. << I would like to regular mail a copy of "Patent of 80 acres to Richard Bullock, 28 September 1732" to someone and that person read (translate) the same and send me a copy of that translation. Richard was the son of Richard Bullock (who died in Surry County, Virginia in 1703 and Mary Hawkins Bullock. The deed is in long hand and in Elizabethan (or old English) style. Thanks >>
