I'm guessing it is the names of the younger children you are having trouble with, Avoca?

I would say they are:

Evan
Jane
Thomas
Evan
David
Alice
William
Mary
George
Sydney

Compare Mary with the 2 higher on the page, where the enumerator makes a big loop at the end of the capital M.  My best guess anyway!

kind regards,  Arranroots  ;)

PS Reference RG12/4481 25 48 37 for anyone else who would like to have a go - much easier to find with a reference number!!
