Hi,
Can someone please help with a translation of the attached church book entry for the death of Marguerite Laurens (nee Despierres) in 1711 in Fahrenwalde, Germany.
Thanks,
Rob.

Translation: On June 29, 1711, in Farnévald, died Margueritte des Pierres, widow of Pierre Laurant, native of the government of Ypres, during their lifetime established in said Farnévald, who was buried in the cemetery of the said place, on the 30th of the said month, aged 67.
Sounds a bit weird, but apparently such was the language of 18th Century French legalese.
