Thanks to all on the Dauphin list who gave me websites, lists of words, and all other assistance. I now have enough resources to tackle some of those troublesome words again.

Nora, It might be useful to have the context of the words in questions.

I am attempting to transcribe a few handwritten legal documents--deeds and indentures--from around 1850 and am quite perplexed and confounded by some of the terminology. Some examples are: something that looks like "infroff," "alimed," "legains," "lteuirn" and the like. If someone could offer me a list of commonly used legal terms from that time period, I could then see if some of them would fit. Thank you. Nora

Nora - it helps if you use the context of the sentence to decipher the words. For example: that first 'word' you have - infroff - that could be two ss at the end. Remember that old documents wrote the double s differently. OR - it could be something like - in fief. A lot depends on the context. "alimed" could be alined, aligned or something similar. "legains' - that would take the context to figure out. legions? Well, you get the picture. You really need to rely on context.
