Greetings, Listers, Lincs to the Past have a burial record for William Lowe that I am finding rather difficult to read. May I ask for some assistance, please? I "think" I have the majority of the script as follows: “William Lowe a youth servant of F Rogers death by [ ...?... ] of a Horse burried March 11.” [in 1796] This can be found under South Thoresby Par/1/3 - Baptisms & Burials (1771 - 1812) Image 12, midway down the left hand page. (1) Do you agree with the name of William's employer? (2) Any suggestions as to how William was killed by a Horse? (3) In the late 1700s, how old would a "youth" be? I'm thinking as young as 12, as old as in his late teens. Any suggestions will be most welcome. Denny, Perth Ontario.

I would think a "youth" would be late teens. I've seen early teens, even up to 15, described as "children" in docs.
