Name help
« on: Thursday 05 January 12 21:54 GMT (UK) »
Hello everyone and happy new year.
I don't know if I'm posting this in the right place but I'm hoping for some help in transcribing the name in the attached image. All educated guesses welcome.
 
Regards,

If it's a man's Christian name my guess is Archibald but perhaps you could give us some more clues.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Hello Aghadowey,
Sorry I forgot to mention it was a man's Christian name. I don't have many clues to give, I came across this name on a document relating to an ancestor but there was a bit of a debate over what it was. I don't want to say anything else at the moment as I don't want to influence how other people see it.
In the meantime, thanks for your response.
