Hi -
I don't mean to throw the cat among the pigeons here - but I read the first letter of the name in question as an "S" not an "L". 
Look at the "S" in son

I reading the name as
Reade, Mrs. Seward (Stewart?)

Just another suggestion.....

I would agree with Reade, Mrs Seward

Next column - after a little prompting from  Lydart - I see the whole word 'daughter'

Thanks so much to everybody
I can now see daughter and will look for Stewart/Seward/Leonard /Lawrence Reade.
Steward sounds very probable

Much appreciated
