Hi,

I think the mother's maiden name is Mcslane but not quite sure. Opinions please.

I don't know that it starts with an 'S' - the other capital S seem to have a loopier tale (see Street)

Edited to add - image has been changed, in case anyone thinks i'm seeing things! ;D

Hi

Scotlands People have it as McSlane and they aren't often wrong.  There's at least one other S on the page that looks like that.

Just put this with two others on the page. When it's enlarged the lower loop of the S is only partly showing.

Looks to me like McAlane.

An A

A bit more of the writing might help but I'm going with Scotlands People's interpretation.
