It could be Copeland and that squiggle on the right could be St. There is a Copeland St. in Stoke on Google maps. The writing is the worst I have seen for a long time.

Looks more like Frances than Francis to me, which doesn't make much sense as that is supposed to be the feminine form of the name, but perhaps it was done in error.

Annie Maria Welch
