Need help figuring out the Father's Name
« on: Thursday 11 October 18 11:02 BST (UK) »
Hello!

Wondered if you might be able to help, I've managed to figure out the majority of the writing on this certificate, however i'm struggling on Margarets Father's name, i'm certain the surname is Moore, but any idea on his first name?

Thanks in advance!

Not sure it is Thomas,looks like a badly written William with a correction in the middle.

Agree with Thomas.

(All Moores. William's father also William. Crumbs - this family must be a nightmare to research..!  :o))

Best regards,
Karen

Sorry, I was not looking at Margaret’s father.
I looked at the top line.
