Can anyone help me figure out what this is supposed to say? I know the top bit reads "Bridget McCormick" but I'm trying to decipher what's written under "Formerly" and I'm drawing a complete blank. I'm pretty sure my family tree ends here if no one can figure out what this person tried to write in 1877.

Could it be Baccou?

But then, looking at the m in mccormack above, the double c could be an m perhaps.

Bamon?

Edited: misread original post
Can you say who the birth certificate is for and where in the country

If this is the mother's maiden name on a child's birth certificate, purchasing the birth certificate of another of her children may be worth consideration. :)
You may also be able to find her marriage to Mr Mc Cormick which would give you her maiden surname.

I think it could be Banon.

I think Barron or Bannon.

Sorry for cropping it poorly, I didn't think before posting.
It's a birth certificate for Anne McCormick, parents John McCormick and Bridget McCormick, in the year 1877.
Handwriting for the whole thing kind of verges on illegible - the only reason I know it's even supposed to say Anne is that it's identified as such on the site.
