Is the person on 1861 to see what birthplace is on that? 

What has it been transcribed as out of interest?
Hinchliffe - Huddersfield Wiltshire
Burroughs - Arlingham Glos
Pick - Frocester Glos

It looks like it begins with 'E' as it looks like the 'E' in England

I think it begins with 'E' and ends with 'y'

Begins with an E (Greek cursive) - Eldlersy ?  possibly Elderslie (Renfrewshire) ?
