There is a burial at St Mary Reigate 10 March 1607/8 which I am having trouble reading
https://www.ancestry.co.uk/interacti...nSearchResults
What I have is 'The xth of March was buryed [?] Sander from [?my] [?] [?place].
Can someone fill in the blanks please?

Before Sander is Mrs. Then "from any ? & place".

Could it be Mr Hore's Place?

It could be my, certainly looks like a 'y' & 'm's often had an extra upstroke. Don't know about the other word but I'm pretty certain the letter 2nd from the end is a 'd'.

It doesn't make sense but as there are two dots or tittles over the word, the first letter could be j- joid? ?????????? The last letter doesn't look to me like anything about at the time.

Mr Ford's place?

Thank you for the replies
ElizabethHerts - I had a sinking feeling that it was Mrs, even though my CD of Surrey Burials has it as Mr.
KiteRunner and Glen - thank you for the suggestions - 'Ford's place' would make sense, although I keep seeing 'my' instead of 'Mr' :-)
Will check out if there are any Fords in the area
Regards

It's like the "Abbreviation for 'es', 'is', 'ys', to denote a plural" on here:

Is it "my lordes place?"

There is a Sanders (or Saunders) family in Charlwood, with a property sometimes known as Sanders Place.

Phoenix – thank you for the suggestion, will check that one out too.
It is the Sanders/Saunders family of Hookwood House in Charlwood that I am researching - they are possibly connected to the Sanders of Charlwood Place and/or the Sanders of Ewell but there are big gaps in the Charlwood registers and not too many Wills to help unfortunately...
