Thank you!  It's a continuation of the address onto the name line!  That's the address Dianna visited.  She knocked on the door, told them our great great grandfather lived there and they allowed her to tour it.  Now I know to stick with searching for John Stubbs.  Appreciate your help.

Sorry, that's what happens when you zoom in too far.

awwwww!  My naughty Grandma - she was a month pregnant when she got married   ;D  In researching the microfilm births, I also note they wrote down "illegitimate" on some of the births.

I think that the signatures do definitely not read Murphy.  Can you all help?  Looks like the signatures  for Sally's last name ends in hley?  What do you all think?

They are not signatures, it's just the priest filling in the names, so you have to familiarize yourself with his handwriting, looking at other examples from surrounding pages I'd say both those names are (meant to be) Murphy
