[Ansteorra] Time period

[Hugh & Belinda Niewoehner]

Corpora clearly states "Pre-seventeenth Century" so...pre-1601.  But 
anything documentable to the next decade or so is highly likely (or 
assumed to be) found in period as it likely took a while for something 
to be common enough to show up in general use.    Hence Digby is 
generally accepted as 'close enough'.

Can you document the origin to a specific year or is that simply when it 
came into common use and therefore rose to the "I gotta write about 
this" level?
