On our transcriptions of Nempnett Thrubwell Burials the burial of Richard OGBORN, (my 5 x great grandfather) is noted as on the 24th December 1782. Even our brilliant Graham Payne has been beaten by the words used in the parish record to describe him so he had put that he was "a * man". The image on Ancestry has me stumped as well - Please can someone take a look to see if they can decipher the writing. The nearest I can get is "a dropsical man"? but I've no idea what follows that. All suggestions welcome. Thank you.
