Here's a nice Latinization: "Catalogs Senatus Academici, ...., in Collegio Dartmuthensi, Hanoverae, in Republica Neo-Hantoniensi." (i.e., catalog of the academic senate...Dartmouth College, Hanover, State of New Hampshire). www.gwu.edu/gelman/spec/researchguides/bibliographies/stick... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 34 mins (2009-04-16 19:09:26 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- ""Johannes Lucas, in agro Hantoneinsi natus, ab antiqua et nobili familia Lucasiorum oriundus....This John Lucas, M.A., (whom I well knew) was borne at Froyle in Hampshire, ..." http://books.google.com/books?id=9ylPvKNF_FMC&pg=PA191 |
