Title: Help with deciphering Fathers Firstname
Post by: Willhog on Saturday 22 December 12 15:20 GMT (UK)

Hello,

      I would like help in deciphering the firstname of Frederick Roberts father in the attached Marriage certificate. You will also see that he was deceased at this time.

      Many thanks for any assistance.

       Kind regards and Merry Xmas.

                         Will Roberts

Hello  :)

      Many thanks to all the prompt replies. George it is then. Pity really, if it had been John (very unlikely) I would have found him and Martha in an earlier census. George is also not a current family name.

      Merry Xmas.

                        Will.
