Greetings all, Can someone help me to interpret these abbreviations found in a footnote to an article on the Victoria County History website? http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=22947&strquery=byass#n333 B.L. Add. MS. 39348, ff. 258-9; _Alum. Cantab. to_ 1751, s.v. Wm. Byass. The bit that I don't get is "s.v. Wm. Byass" as there's no mention of Wm Byass in the article. He's the chap I'm interested in (his descendent married into my Devon Waymouths, so it's nearly Devon related). Many thanks, Robyn Recovering from a vile heatwave in Melbourne
