Having a little more time to look at it, I agree with Redroger and vv. Too many vertical lines in this example. The random dots on the page don't help either, so there may be a letter i in there, but not necessarily. After the surname, does it say 'Norton was '? If so then there could even be a w in the forename.
Nothing springs to mind but the nearest long shot is Annie....
I've just had a bolt from the blue, I was wondering what that first letter could be if it wasn't an A. It could be a C but..... how about a G followed by wm for Latinised William.
I'll now go back and check the first example.
