Any idea of this surname?
« on: Friday 17 November 06 21:40 GMT (UK) »
The family in the middle - I can't make up my mind if it's BARR/MANN etc.

It's 1851 St George Southwark HO107/1565 not sure of the folio but page 15 (38 Temple Street?)

I'll vote for Mann, if you look at the B above , it's different  :)

Mind you, my eyes are squiffy tonight but it's still Mann!

PS but the other M's aren't quite the same - Hann  :-\

I thought Mann too, but then the "M" in "Mar[ried]" looks different.
Hmm...my money's on Mann  :)

Nope, changed my mind  ;D

It's Barr.

The "B"s above it are actually pretty similar, and the two letters at the end of the name have more in common with the "r"s than the "n"s on the rest of the page.

The B s have a bigger loop mind - I see what you mean about the rs ~Marr  :-\

But look at McKenna!

I think the initial is an 'H' - HORN maybe?

It is different from the M in married.
