Hi Sarah.

I think the name may be Nancy Bell, and I'm akmost sure the second line contains the words Penny farthing.   ???

ETA Or possibly the middle word on second line could be the name Henry.

Bottom line says Deceased.

I think it reads Nancy, but Nancy can be a pet name for Ann or Agnes, so I'd try those with the two surnames.
