What is this name?
« on: Sunday 07 June 20 15:00 BST (UK) »
Hi all, hoping you can help decipher the handwriting to figure out Randall Arrowsmith's wife's name here. It's been transcribed previously as 'Tomasca' but I'm not sure that's correct - I'm also wondering whether it says "prima uxor" or if I've read that wrong, although I don't understand why that would be in the burial record unless he remarried incredible quickly?
