Strange occupation

[willperone]

This woman's occupation looks like it's Gytildonna. Does anyone know what that is? I know her husband was some wealthy landowner if that helps.

Maybe it's gentildonna?

[maestra36]

I agree that the word is gentildonna-means noblewoman, dame, gentlewoman, member of upper class

[aliza24]

Don't have any of those kind of people in my tree.

Hah that's what I thought too... they were all farmers, but then there was this one line that was carpenter -> carpenter -> tailor -> the town clerk, pretty crazy what you find sometimes
