I can't make out all of the place names writing in the left margin but what is odd is some of them don't match the place names from his IPM.

was looking at Oswestry births.wonder if it was of Willow st then. but poss Williams too.
You asked for the word at the end of the second line in clip 1. I've attached an enlarged view of that word. It is 'crofte' and the 'c' is the reason I interpreted the second highlighted word on clip 1 as 'crospiaell'. Now that I have enlarged that word - see my reply to Bookbox - I can see a 't' as the fourth letter from the end, so now I see it as 'crosputell'.
