What does this document say? It is part of a will for Thomas Lucy I believe it is written in Latin.

I'm sorry I cannot help since I do not know Latin. When it is archaic handwriting in English, I can help, but since I am not sure of the words, I do not have letters to compare it with.

The National Archives has some great tutorials on reading Latin documents and archaic Latin handwriting. There are other places that have tutorials as well. I will post links to some of them here:

https://historyhouse.co.uk/articles/handwriting.html

And FamilySearch has a great document that discusses Latin Handwriting. It is definitely something everyone should have in their reference library!

I hope this helps a bit!!!
