Hi Susan, This is corret. You should interpret it as " currently living here". He may or may not have been born "here".

Is that correct? Susan Baerbel Johnson wrote: > The word "hujatem" means "from here", or "here", and the other one should be "pudicam", which means "wise". A common phrase used for a maiden is "pudicam virginam" or "pudica virgine" which literally means "wise virgin". The groom is often referred to a "adolescents" - young man. > Have a great weekend! > > Baerbel For all the latest News, please visit our Homepage: http://www.germanyroots.com Please visit and participate in our new forum http://www.germanyroots.com/phpBB3/ ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message NOTICE: This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
