Bridegroom's Surname?

[Alex Edge]

I'd be very grateful for the help of anyone who cares to take a shot at interpreting the problem I have come across.
We are in the Marriage Indexes for the Third Quarter of 1965, letter M, Page 54.  At the bottom of the left hand page, under the Melville surnames is a hand written entry.  The text appears to me as follows:
"1. Mellor, Freda K.  [undecipherable surname]  Macclesfield 10A  979" .  The transcriber has it as:
"1. Mellor, Ireda K.   [Grooms surname]  Arran  Macclesfield 10A 979".  IMHO the surname looks nothing like Arran and the couple had children and they don't respond to searching with the Arran surname.
Any assistance warmly welcomed.

If you turn it round and search FreeBMD for Macclesfield marriages in that quarter with spouse surname Mellor, you will get one female result which you can disregard and one male result (with a slightly different page number from Freda's - perhaps a mistranscription has occurred somewhere).

Does that male name (too recent to post on here I am afraid) look more promising?

Rowland L Gilman - again a disgusting copy of the hand-written entry

His full name is given in http://www.cheshirebmd.org.uk

This ties in with the Electoral Register (living with Freda) and a death in 2006, born 1928, although it has a different spelling of his middle name.

Many thanks to the three members who took on my problem.  I'm sure GILMAN is the correct solution. Plus I've learnt some new searching ploys (if I can remember them when I need them!).  Very many thanks for your prompt attention.
