Hello List, I read this interesting burial entry in the OPR for Leake. Can anyone enlighten me further, please? The writing was poor and I have gleaned what I could from it and other similar entries in the register. "Upon the 31 day of October and in the ...... year of the Reign of our Sovereign Lord Charles the Second King of England, Scotland and ffrance and of Ireland(?) anno dom 1578 an affidavit ....... to me ......... for that Thomas KILVINGTON of Knaton in ........... of Leake died(?) October 23 was then interred according to the Directions(?) of the Cato(?) Act for burying in woollen only." I have heard of "burying in woollen" before and would be pleased if anyone can enlarge on it. Regards Ailsa Petrie -- Hamilton New Zealand
