It looks like Tozer but possibly Roger(s).  It will be Dorothy Perry's married name, these were added to lots of the names on the 1939 register as it was used to start the NHS list.

Where was Dorothy Perry living in 1939?  There is a marriage in Brentford, Middlesex of a Dorothy Perry to a Paul Rogers, but more interesting a marriage of a Dorothy Perry to an Alexander Tozer in Plymouth in 1946 (ref Plymouth 5b 715 in Jan-March quarter)

If she was in Devon in 1939 then a Plymouth marriage would fit, but presumably you already know her married name - or perhaps you didn't as you didn't recognise it on the 1939 register.

No I didn't know her married name, can't find much on her at all.

Thank you for your help.
