I could go with Frank but can't see an 'r'  ???

The penmanship is hampered by such a lot of ink !

It's not F.

But it looks like S in Sarah on the page.  I could post more examples of the handwriting.

Look at the S in Sarah and the J in January.

I'm leaning towards Saml.

Definitely an 'S'  :)

I'll go with your guess ~ Samuel/ Saml

Thanks Claire.

There is a difference with the S having a longer flat top than the J.

Also, the last letter looks to be raised - what's the right term?

Haven't a clue  ;D but I do know what you mean  ;D

But I'm happy it is definitely an S

It does look like Saml the more I look at it  :)
