    If it's just some children, then my guess is (Late) Latin condam "former, the late": deceased. (Older/proper would be quondam.)

    (We do not have a Community group specifically for Latin translations, and even for German ones, it gets tricky. I've asked a few times in the Germany Research group, but always felt bad, because not a single one of them had anything whatsoever to do with Germany.)

    The relevant locality groups are the best places to request translations. There are members who translate every day. https://community.familysearch.org/en/group/185-switzerland-research
