Although the  transcription says Bory, neither the other Bs or rs on the page look like those in the surname. I'm tempted to say Do*y.

I'll have a look through other pages to see if I can find anything like it.

There's a letter in the middle of her parish that looks the same  but I can't work out the parish name either!  I thought I knew the Shropshire parishes  :-\

PS - I think the 3rd letter maybe a c not an r

I think the first letter is a k.

It's the same as the fourth last letter of the surname in the burial on the next line (though not as well formed).  I think this name is some form of Fawkner = perhaps Foukner?

Tentatively, I think the name might be kery.

The parish is written rockitter, I think.  Does this mean anything to anyone?

Sounds phonetically a little like Wroxeter
