Any suggestions on Susana's surname?

That's a hard one. Even looking at the rest of the page doesn't help, it seems to be the only entry in that hand. The baptism entry for Thomas Greenland in 1655 is perhaps by the same writer. The 'G' is different, but the 'T' does seem to have similar strokes. So my guess would be Teralle, but without any certainty.

Quite. C, E, N or a T? Hard to know.

Always frustrating when someone actually writes the names down but in a scrappy hand (my own is worse these days so I should not be calling people out on the handwriting).

Many thanks for trying

Where I have seen this style of elaboration on a letter, the correct reading has been found in the right-hand half of the whole - which in this case is a T.

It would be clearer except the writer has included the extra line on the curve (which makes it look like part of a baseball).

The same is happening with the g in georg at the beginning of the entry.  The right-hand half is the letter; to the left is a curved flourish with an extra line for elaboration.

Thank you for that

I note that there is someone else's attempt in the FindMyPast registers showing as "Eralle" (Maybe from BTs?)

I'm not sure if this is an FindMyPast user-submitted suggestion or something written more or less contemporaneously?  (I don't have FindMyPast.)

However, given that his surname is clearly Ford in the PR, I don't see a reason to take this seriously.

Thanks again

I shall investigate Teralle as this does seem likely
