Frory isn't a name I've ever heard of, sami - but to me, that sounds right.

I certainly can't see it as being anything else ?

Neither of the surnames are familiar to me:   As the list is copied from an original submission my first inclination is to check other sources.   To my surprise, surfing found "Warne(s)" was a surname in Norfolk.  I've had a look and I see that the transcriber on the "Doun" website had a difficult job deciphering the parish registers for "Frosey" and thought it could be "Frary" (261 entries for this surname) or something similar

It looks like 'Frary' to me, not an unusual name in Norfolk, I think.

Edit - there are lots of Warns/Warnes in Norfolk too. Jary is also a common Norfolk name.
