[MR] olde english

[Joseph FitzStefan]

 Esteemed populace,
 From the brief look that I have had the time to take at this site, it seems to be a great resource for paleography or calligraphy. However I didn't find any old English primer. Moreover, any site that is useful for wills from the 15-1600's is at least 400 years too young for old English.
 I find this site to be a marvelous old English primer:

 This is an excellent site from the University of Calgary. It is the best that I have found for quickly and easily getting a taste of old English.
 Ever  yours,
 Iosef Cappeler

I found this link perusing the archives of RootsWeb inquiries.  It is their primer to Olde English and references to many sources for research.   This came about finding an inquiry looking for help to translate some old wills from 15-1600's.  There may also be some Latin involved.  If anyone is interested I will pass along your contact to him.

In service,
Edward deWitt
