It looks like something like Owenson / Owensen, or A....sen or A....son.  I can't really make it out.

Kattzy - it IS hard to read. You should contact Scotland's People and request a clearer image. They're very good about this kind of thing.

Hi Kattzy

This is the link for SP re illegible image www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/content/contactus/form.aspx?issue=24

They are very good on responding to this type of issue, normally 24-48 hours. If you explain where you are having a problem, they will send you an enhanced section of the image which in most cases can make a big difference.

As well as requesting a clearer image from SP, you could purchase Thomas Boyle's birth certificate to see what his mother's maiden name is.

I think, looking at the births of Thomas Boyle and wife Julia's children on IGI, he might have been Irish born pre the start of official reg. in Ireland which makes it tricky unfortunately!
