Hope no one minds me posting again, could anyone tell me the name of the groom on this one please - cannot work it out other than Thomas.

Thanks  :)

Hi Ria

Is it possible to put more of the certificate for us to view as you need
to be able to look at other lines of the scribe to see how he writes
different letters

thanks

Hi Sandymc, here is the two pages. Not sure if you can see the writing or if it's too zoomed out.

Wow, what a scribbler he was.

The closest i can get is 'Pery' but I'm not happy with it.

Yes, think the  symbol is far too big for a lower case 'o', and that it forms part of the
capital letter.

Also, I see the letter before the 'y' as an 'r', like the second 'r' in 'Margeret'

v.v I thought the letter before the 'y' was an 'r' too, but then it's the same as an 'e' in Elizabeth in an entry below.

Yes. There are two more in your Margeret Lake entry, in 'were maried'.

Perhaps the best we can say is that the letter is ambiguous, and that the name ends
in 'ey' or 'ry', unless someone can see a subtle difference.
