Fairly common in older legal documents: "et ux" - and wife, sometime with actual name included "et vir" - and husband and again sometime with actual name included "et al" - and others. Usually first time all names are stated then later in same document sometimes only shown as "Harvey, et al" (for example). More recently et ux and et vir have mostly been replaced with actual words "and wife" or "and husband". "Et al" is still used where appropriate and/or acceptable in the context of the document. For example, you may find a deed in 1914 from A, B, C, and D to E. Later in 1919, a deed from E to F when referring to the 1914 transaction might refer to the parties named in the 1914 deed as A, et al to E. A word of caution: In 1921 you find a lawsuit styled C vs. F (and/or perhaps some of the others) claiming an interest in the property. When you look at C's petition, you discover that he is claiming (1) he didn't sign the deed or (2) someone signed his name who was not authorized to do so or (3) another possibility, F is claiming a greater interest in the property than C (and/or the others) conveyed and F is wrongfully excluding them from the use and enjoyment of C's remaining interest in the property. I won't do here but I can outline for you many fact situations that give rise to these land title disputes, many of which involve heirs of deceased ancestors. Perhaps more than you wanted to know but sometimes the first deed you encounter doesn't tell the whole story.

On real estate transactions we use et ux to mean "and wife" so it was probably similar then.
