English translation: who is known to me and whose signature I recognize

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Spanish term or phrase:por ser de mi conocida
English translation:who is known to me and whose signature I recognize

Law (general)
Spanish term or phrase: por ser de mi conocida
DOY FE: que considero legítima la firma y rúbrica que anteceden del XXXX, Rector de XXX, por ser de mi conocida y coincidir con la que usa habitualmente.

Sé que "personally known to me" se usa cuando el notario dice que conoce a la persona. ¿Pero cómo se dice cuando se refiere a la firma de la persona?

¿Se usa "known to me" también?: the foregoing signature and rubric (...) are genuine and known to me...


Gracias

Thanks Ana, here is my suggestion for the whole sentence:
I HEREBY ATTEST: that X, Rector of the University of X, who is known to me and whose signature I recognize, has above appended his signature hereto.
(I don't personally think you need "His Excellency" in English)

Notes to answerer
Asker: Hola: me gusta tu opción, pero como vengo redactando la oración en inglés, no estoy muy segura de cómo enganchar tu opción: I hereby attest that the foregoing signature and rubric of His Excellency X, Rector of Universidad X, are genuine... ¿Cómo engacharía tu opción?

Asker: Gracias por la ayuda. Puse his Excellency porque en el original dice: Excelentísimo y magnífico señor XXX....
