What is Sidrack's son's name?
« on: Monday 01 September 25 21:06 BST (UK) »
This is an extract of the PR of Godalming, Surrey for 1625/26.  Can anyone figure out the name of Sidrack (Shadrach)'s son?

The transcriptions I have seen are gibberish, I can't find a likely candidate on marriages or burials, and I can't think of a biblical or Shakespearian name to fit.  The only name I can think of is Eusebius, but the image doesn't seem to fit this guess.  Does the name Darbeelus exist?

Any help will be gratefully received.

Looking at the whole page, I think it is written Ewbeelus. Compare the first letter with Edward further down the page (last entry for March).

Maybe a version of Eubulus?
