Yup, definitely "tent".  I would have thought there would be alot of tents in that kind of place, I wonder how they knew which tent?   ;D

My guess at the ambiguous name is Falmer but I'm definately just a beginner at this.
Eccleston, Farmer, Hampton, Ridgway, Hayward, Brough, Walker, Horn, Hardwick (Hartwig), King, Hibbard.  Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Shropshire, Devon, London.

Did you eventually sort out  your certificate - You see I have a marriage certificate for Mary Tracey who married Joseph Boyd in 1854 and other details also include a Hugh Tracey and also occupations of painter and farmer.  Are we researching the same family?
