Title: Maiden name of mother? COMPLETED
Post by: maquis on Friday 11 October 13 21:53 BST (UK)

This is from the Scottish death record of my Irish 3x ggrandmother, but I can't figure out her mother's maiden surname (after "M.S.").  Any suggestions?

Hi Maquis, welcome to Rootschat!

It looks like Derrick to me (the y from Flynn is confusing matters I think).

Hello maquis - welcome  :)

I agree with Heather that the surname is Derrick.

Thank you both!!  Just did a quick search on Griffiths Valuation and found some Derricks in Mayo, so another surname to add to the mix  :D
