Isabel Nicol's maiden name
« on: Thursday 23 July 15 09:08 BST (UK) »
Hi Everyone,
This is pretty clear but I can't read Isabel's maiden name. Not sure if it starts with a G, Y or even a T!

Comparing the initial letter with the T in Margaret Taylor, rather than the T in Thomas, it looks like Towns.

Many thanks,
Yikes, what hope for me I thought it was Young! I think I can see Towns now - off to look for a Nicol/Towns marriage.

Another vote for Towns here
Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex
