First name for Bryan - COMPLETED - with thanks
« on: Sunday 29 April 12 10:26 BST (UK) »
Could anyone help decipher this first name, and occupation.

He was the father of a Norah Bryan, who married a John Clery in Dublin August 1915

Thanks both, after you mention it it's obvious... but unexpected, first Sylvester I've found in  my tree. The occupation's a surprise as I presumed they were well off by Dublin standards of the time from where Nora and her sister were living in 1911, I assume both parents were deceased by this time.
