I am looking up my ancestors and one entry reads:
'Jacobus Kennedy filius Gilberti Kennedy de Aughtifardell'
Just wondering exactly what filius means.

filius = latin for "son"
(Jacob Kennedy, son of Gilbert Kennery of Aughtifardell)

filius = son; so the entry translates as: "Jacob Kennedy, son of Gilbert Kennedy from Aughtifardell".

Same meaning as "bin/ibn" in Arabic and "bar" in Hebrew.
"son of/son"
