Agree 'annexed'. Presume you have identified the brother as Henry.

I suggest the doctor's qualification is MB rather than MD, but guess it doesn't really matter.

The logic behind capitalisation in documents of this age tends to
defeat the modern reader, probably because there is no logic.
My first reading was "Doe Succeed", although on more careful
examination, there is a letter missing from the second word. Whether
it is a "c" or an e", I can't tell. Enlargement doesn't help due to the
image quality.

Agree the W as per Bookboxes' reasoning, but maybe Wadrin -see the d in 'payd'

BugBear,
If you get back to earlier, less structured register entries, you may find this link useful:

It certainly helped me with Walloon registers.

Gloucestershire / Re: Forest of Dean Family History Site
« on: Monday 10 March 14 08:58 GMT (UK) »I have been trying all afternoon to log in. It has my user name at the top but each time I try to do a look up it is showing error - please log in.
Sue, the FoD site regularly times out logged on users, perhaps in order to manage a limited number of available connections. This happens to me often, especially if I have left the screen idle for any length of time, and as you say, the screen still displays my login name, although I am no longer logged in. If that is what is going on in your case, all you have to do is log in again.
