Help reading a name please.

Not my strongest point in family history, reading records. Trying to make out the names, surnames.

Any help please would be grand :-)

I would say Holleson or possibly Holleron.

What is this from,where and what date?

Might help us to cross check it.

I agree, Holleron - compare the other Rs in Margaret, agricultural etc.
Heather

p.s. it was her maiden surname too, in case you're finding reading that line difficult  :)

Thank you, struggling past this point, as believe their from Ireland, and moved to Scotland, not sure if my great great granddad Patrick was a only child to Margaret whos death record it belongs too, or if he had other siblings.
