The bottom entry in this list of baptisms from St Oswald, Ashbourne, Derbyshire in February 1705/06 could be mine.
Freereg have interpreted it as "Mary daughter of Tho ALSOP of Ashbourne, Notes: ALSOP als GRAY".
But it, to me, reads, as "Mary daughter of Tho GRAY als? Alsop a? Chappel in this Parish of Ashbourne".
According to genuki: Alsop-en-le-dale, a chapelry in the Parish of Ashbourne. So I think it is Mary GRAY of Alsop en le dale being baptised.
In which case Mary is not the Mary ALLSOP I am looking for as she is actually Mary GRAY and I am back to the drawing board.
Thoughts please. Thank you, Mitch
